Anthropology majors present posters based on their senior seminar projects.

Four sociology and anthropology (SOAN) senior research seminars are wrapping up their projects this week, and each student is presenting on the results of their work. On Friday, December 6, SOAN majors in the anthropology emphasis presented posters on their research projects in Merrill House.  These students are enrolled in Professor Emilio Spadola’s seminar this term, “Senior Seminar in Anthropology,” where they researched topics ranging from the rise of K-Pop in Korea to the importance of “locality” in the museums of nearby Peterboro, NY.  A job well done to each of our SOAN seniors completing their capstone projects this term, and best wishes for the completion of your papers this week.
