Hi everyone! My name is Vivian Kellar, and I’m so excited to be your Anthro Club Co-President this year. I’m originally from Warren, Ohio (about an hour outside of Cleveland). I’m a senior majoring in Anthropology and Forensic Science with a minor in French and Francophone Studies. I’m currently working towards my Departmental Distinction in Anthropology, conducting research on the biocultural experience of childhood in late-eighteenth- and early-nineteenth-century Manhattan. Outside of my research, I also enjoy reading mystery novels, binging ‘90s television, and listening to The Strokes.

Although I will be off campus studying abroad for the fall semester, I will still be in touch via Zoom and email. Feel free to reach out if you have any comments or questions – or even if you’d just like someone to chat with. Looking forward to a great year together!

Hey y'all! I'm Ella Coste, also super pumped to be the other Co-President for the Anthropology Club. I am originally from Phoenix, Arizona but have been living on the Syracuse University campus for the past three years. I'm working on finishing up my senior year in the Anthropology/Forensic Science program with a minor in Spanish. My interests primarily lie in Archaeology and Osteology, and I recently attended the Summer Archaeology Field School with Professors Armstrong and Pezzarossi. When I'm not at work or in the library, I love spending time outdoors, listening to ABBA, and finding hidden treasures at thrift stores.

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns - I'm in the neighborhood!

To ask questions or offer feedback about the Undergraduate Anthropology Club e-mail us at either of our emails above and one of our e-board members will get back to you at our earliest convenience.
