2015 Banquet

The eighth annual Anthropology Banquet took place on May 21, 2015.  We had an excellent turnout of Anthropology majors and minors who shared a wonderful evening with the faculty and staff at the Adobe Lodge.  In addition to a delicious dinner the attendees honored the recipients of the 2015 Anthropology Awards and inductees into the Lambda Alpha society .

The Anthropology Award (given to a senior anthropology major that has done outstanding work in anthropological research) was given to Audrey Hiatt and Allison McNamara, with Honorable Mentions going to Matthew Stockamp and Zoe Soter.  The Father Eugene Buechel, S.J. award was given to Matthew Stockamp, and the Outstanding Scholastic Achievement was presented to Morris Kim.  Congratulations to all!!!
