Visit From Anthropologist Claudia Strauss Various Activities on March 14th
This is an invitation for all anthropologists, ethnographers, and researchers of culture!

The Department Sociology, Anthropology, and Health Administration & Policy as invited anthropologist Claudia Strauss to campus next week. Strauss is a cognitive anthropologist from Pitzer College who looks at personal meanings of cultural complexity primarily through research regarding work and class in the U.S.  While she is here, she will be giving a lecture as part of the Social Science Forum and will also be offering a methods workshop:

1) Social Science Forum: Wednesday, March 14, from 7-8pm on the 7th Floor of the Library. Dr. Strauss will speak about "Achieving the American Dream or Not: Immigrants’ Narratives Following the Great Recession" (See flyer attached)

2) Methods Workshop: The Anthropology Program will be hosting an informal Method Workshop during "free hour" the day of the Forum: Wednesday, March 14, from 12-1 in PUP 204 (lunch provided) for faculty and students who are especially interesting in analyzing interview material or other transcripts. Dr. Strauss has agree to speak about methods she has developed to extract and analyze culture in interviews and other statements. These include ways to get at conventional discourses, links between personal experience and cultural models, and conflicting ideas within individuals and within social groups. These methods that examine the said as well as the unsaid allow her to examine the effects of layered cultural learning, use of culture by individuals, and different forms of power.

3) Dinner? A few of us may be taking Claudia out for a quick dinner before the Forum. Let Dr. Bambi Chapin know if you are interested in joining!

Learn how you could become a medical doctor debt free. Film presentation of "Dare to Dream" about US students in Cuban medical school.

Join us for our “Dare to Dream” Film Screening! This film tells the story of the largest medical school in the world, the Latin American Medical School, in Havana, Cuba. The story is told through the eyes of US students who received scholarships, with the commitment to return home, and practice medicine in underserved communities in the US. 

Through the stories of graduates of ELAM, as it is known in Spanish, we will learn the history of this medical school that is revolutionizing healthcare on a global level.  We will also, see the promise these doctors represent for their communities.What happens when a country dares to dream that young people can change the world? A discussion will follow led by Marina Adler Ph.D. (Professor, Sociology, Anthropology and Health Administration and Policy) and Leslie Salgado (Founder, Friends of Latin America “FOLA”).
