ANTHROPOLOGIST TO SPEAK AT BOISE STATE APRIL 21

Russell Gould, a research professor of anthropology at Southern Methodist University, will speak at 3 p.m. Monday, April 21, in the Student Union Senate Forum. His talk is part of the Boise State University Department of Anthropology Lecture Series.

Gould, whose interests focus on the analysis of archaeological components in historic and prehistoric contexts, will speak on “Logic and Analysis of Function in Historical Archaeology.” Much of his archaeological fieldwork has been done in Alaska and Siberia.

Gould will also be the keynote speaker for the Undergraduate Research Initiative conference earlier that day. Undergraduate students in Boise State University’s College of Social Sciences and Public Affairs will give poster presentations from 9:30 a.m.-noon in the Student Union Hatch Ballroom. Their research is in several disciplines, including anthropology, communication, criminal justice, family studies, history, political science, psychology, social work and sociology. In addition, several students will be recognized for outstanding research achievements.

A recognition ceremony begins at 11 a.m. Dean Michael Blankenship will address the group and present certificates to each research presenter and recognized student.
