Anthropology 3

Introduction to Social and Cultural Anthropology

Welcome to Fall 2019!

Thank you for enrolling in ANTH 3: Introduction to Social and Cultural Anthropology!

I look forward to being your professor and working together to make anthropology meaningful and memorable, as well as practical so that you leave with an intellectual toolkit that is valuable for many academic pursuits as well as in your own daily lives. This is a rigorous, challenging course, based on the comparative study of culture. Hope you are looking forward to an interesting, productive, and valuable learning experience together!

...are you on the waitlist?

Don't panic! There is a great chance that you will receive an Add Code for the class once classes begin. I drop students who do not attend the first week of the course, and I go down the Waitlist in order to add students.

If you are not yet on the Waitlist (or if the Waitlist is full), send me an email!
