ANTHROPOLOGY Coordinator: Rosemary Conover Telephone Contact: Valerie Cook 626-6241 Description Anthropology is a synthesizing discipline which focuses on humans as bearers of culture and attempts to understand and order the variety of human behavior patterns in a holistic framework. It embraces not only contemporary ethnic groups and their problems, but also the historic and prehistoric past on a world-wide basis. Fields include archaeology, linguistics, ethnology, physical, and social anthropology. Students majoring in the sciences will find archaeology, with its emphasis on the means of scientific problem solving, to be a stimulating discipline for extending their science education into the human arena.
