The Anthropology Society

Robyn EricksonThe Anthropology Society strives to promote interest in anthropology through a diversity of activities: sponsorship of campus speakers, field excursions, and volunteerism with professional/avocational organizations such as the Florida Gulf Coast Archaeological Society. Anthropology Club officer Robyn Erickson (pictured), who volunteered for an archaeological dig in Maximo Park near the Eckerd campus, was featured in the local newspaper. Such digs are one of many activities that club members take part in throughout the year.
