News & Notes for 2013

On April 23, King Carl XVI Gustav of Sweden presented Dr. Paul Stoller with the 2013 Anders Restizius Gold Medal in recognition of his scientific contributions to anthropology. The medal is given to an anthropologist once every three years.  The ceremony was followed by a symposium on the "anthropology of well-being" convened at the Swedish Academy of Science in Stockholm. 

This is what the blogosphere is saying about Dr. Paul Stoller: paul-stoller-why-anthropo_b_3131354

The Department of Anthropology and Sociology had our annual end of the year party for graduating Seniors.  We presented awards for our "outstanding student in Anthropology" and our "outstanding student in Sociology."  We also celebrated Dr. Paul Stoller's Anders Restizius Award.  Pictures from the celebration are below.  Happy Summer Break!!
