Call for Papers--AGSA Symposium

The 5th Annual AGSA Symposium,

"The Technologies of Culture: Techniques and Theory"

February 25-27, 2010.

In its fifth year, the annual AGSA Symposium has proven to be a valuable opportunity for students to share their work on campus. It is a chance to present your research to your peers in a friendly environment, prep a paper for a bigger conference, find out what mysterious project your friend's are working on in the department and learn about similar studies that are going on across campus.

This year's theme is "The Technologies of Culture: Techniques and Theory". The committee invites graduate and undergraduate students in all anthropological sub-fields and related disciplines to submit papers relating to this topic. This theme can be interpreted broadly to include topics such as: the ways humans interact with technology, historical use of technology, technologies of power and knowledge and methodological and pedagogical uses of technology. IU alumnus, Dr. Mark Schurr of Notre Dame University's Anthropology department will be joining us as our key note speaker for this topic.

CALL FOR PAPERS: Paper, poster, and panels submissions for the symposium are due DECEMBER 17, 2010
