The CHaSS Alumni Lunch Series has gone online! Join us for Digital Take-Out as we discuss careers with esteemed alumni. Listen in and participate by asking questions during the live event on Zoom.   Diana Call (MS ANTH '15, BS ANTH '07) got her start as an undergraduate building an exhibit for the Museum of Anthropology at Utah State University. From there she grew her skills at the Ogden Union Station before earning her M.S. in Archaeology and eventually making her way to southern Utah where she has been at the Dinosaur Discovery Site since 2016.   Holly Andrew (BA ANTH '09) is an anthropologist, historian, and museum professional who serves as the Union Station Museum Curator. Holly actively works with Ogden City to improve the museum’s collections, interpretative exhibitions, and programs. She previously served as a public archaeologist with the University of Oklahoma and got her start at the Hyrum City Museum.  All are welcome to join the conversation on Zoom, but to overlap with the ANTH 3310 course, this event will be held at 9am on February 3.

Intersections on Inclusion: Pride in the Field

Panel Discussion/Presentation

Many USU students, staff, and faculty are engaged in projects and research focused on the LGBTQIA+ community, as explored in the Utah State Today series, “Celebrating Pride.” Join us for a panel discussing approaches to research about, with, and by the LGBTQIA+ community. What key considerations should researchers center when studying gender and sexuality? From research design, to language use, to avoiding bias, to supporting researchers, what do inclusion, equity, and justice look like in practice? Panelists and attendees will reflect together on positionality, privilege, and marginalization, while taking away actionable practices for future research.
