Department Colloquium Series
During the academic year, the department organizes a variety of colloquium events,
for which it typically brings in outside speakers. All events are open to anyone who
wants to attend and include beverages and snacks. These events are an excellent opportunity
to be inspired by what others are doing, learn about the state of the anthropology,
and interact with influential researchers from across the world. The following colloquia
events will count toward your Anthropology Certificate requirements, unless otherwise
stated. To receive email announcements with up to date details regarding the colloquium
