Sapiens Symposium - Call for Undergraduate Papers!
The Sapiens Symposium is an event dedicated to a collaboration of student knowledge concerning issues of human experience and interaction. Through the exchange of wisdom, the Sapiens Symposium serves as a platform for like-minded individuals to present and discuss topics that each find important to their respective field of study. It is in the hopes of its organizers that the Sapiens Symposium will cultivate an increased awareness of and tolerance for the many facets of the human condition in a global village.
* The Sapiens Symposium is a great opportunity to gain experience presenting your own research to your peers and distinguished professionals.
* Also a great opportunity to put the final touches on your research for those considering presenting at the Central States Anthropological Society conference in April 2007 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
* You will have a unique chance for your peers and faculty to comment on your research in an open atmosphere of constructive criticism, offering suggestions for improvement and comments on excellence.
Open to ALL Anthropology, American Ethnic Studies, International Studies, Cultural Studies, and Women’s Studies Majors.
WHEN: March 29, 2007
WHERE: Student Union
WHO: Sponsored by the KSU Anthropology Club. FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT Adam Bohannon (abo46n2@ksu.edu or 913-708-2078)
*Abstract submissions due by February 16, 2007*
There are no stipulations on content, as long as it is relevant to any area of the human condition. Also, ALTERNATIVE MEDIA PRESENTATIONS ARE ALSO WELCOME. THE CONFERENCE IS NOT SOLELY LIMITED TO RESEARCH PAPER PRESENTATIONS. (e.g., Video Documentaries & Digital Ethnographies, Website presentations, etc. Be creative!)
This is the first year the Anthropology Club is putting this on and we hope to turn it into an annual conference. That, however, depends on the amount of submissions we receive and whether or not undergraduates are interested in participating. So if anyone belongs to the American Ethnic Studies, International Studies, Cultural Studies, and/or Women’s Studies listservs, please feel free to forward this e-mail onward. We look forward to hearing from a diverse group of students here at K-State and we hope you all will take the opportunity to share your interests with your fellow students.
On behalf of the KSU Anthropology Club, thank you for your time and we hope to hear from you soon!
Adam Bohannon
