Mission
Provide instruction in the four basic sub-fields of Anthropology, Physical
Anthropology, Archaeology and Prehistory, Social and Cultural Anthropology, and
Linguistic Anthropology, as well as more specialized lower-division courses of
interest to our students and faculty. Our program is designed to be transferable to
4-year colleges and many of our students in fact do transfer. In addition, due to the
fascinating nature of our material, we attract many students who have an
avocational interest.

IX. Needs
Please describe and prioritize any faculty, classified, and student assistant needs.
Our only contract instructor, Roger Newman, retired in December, 2008. Since then, we have had
to rely on adjunct faculty to operate our program. This is not a good situation. Hopefully, we will be able
to hire a full-time contract instructor soon.
Students are required to write papers and pass exams in all courses. In addition, individual courses
require more specialized assignments, such as the collection of kinship data and its portrayal on
genealogical charts, conversation partnering with international students to gather linguistic data, visits to
primate sections of local area zoos, etc.
Recommendation: One strongly felt need is for a tutor to help students grappling with the genetics
section of Physical Anthropology. This is important information for citizenship in general and for
understanding how biological evolution works. At the moment we have no tutors at the College for this
need.
More general counselors needed
Please describe and prioritize any equipment, material, and supply needs.
Need funds for updating and expanding our fossil hominid and primate skull and skeleton replica collection.
Need funds for purchase of new audio-visual materials.
Please describe and prioritize any facilities needs.
Need to find a way to adequately darken the Physical Sciences Lab so that the installed digital
projection equipment can be used during the daylight hours. This continues to be a problem.
Need to keep the Physical Sciences Lab locked when there is no teacher present. This has been
largely implemented but is difficult to enforce.
