SFSU DATA SHARING MEETING FOR ANTHROPOLOGISTS
Erik Garcia, an undergraduate student and Barbara Jones, a graduate student are organizing an anthropology data sharing meeting.  We are looking for graduate and undergraduate students to participate in this data sharing meeting planned for Saturday, February 11, 2006.  This will be an
opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to see what other students are working on, to hear other points of view and practice presenting your research.  The topic will be California research.  Each
participant will have 20 minutes to present with five minutes following the presentation to answer questions.  We have some professors who have already committed to presenting their California research at this meeting including Dr. Mark Griffin and Dr. Jeff Fentress.  We are working on a few more
special guest speakers.  Submit your abstracts before the winter break and be a part of this exciting opportunity.  Send abstracts to Sylvia Leng at the Anthropology office and note it is for the data sharing meeting. Please indicate whether you are an undergraduate or graduate student as well.  This should be very interesting and entertaining if you would participate.

Mark you calendars for Saturday, February 11, 2006. Thanks!
