As a crew chief for the RMNP field survey, Gobber shared her views during the first summer of fieldwork for a five-year archaeological inventory program supervised by professor Brunswig. But archaeology is just one facet of UNC's anthropology program. In an office on UNC's central campus, journalism major Tori Fogg cites the insight she has gained from the program in general. Fogg credits anthropology courses taught by professor Sally McBeth for providing her with a greater insight on American Indians and their contributions to the country throughout its history. She specializes in the teaching of multiculturalism, Native American cultures and life history methods.
Anthropology is an interdisciplinary field.
It's being driven by globalization. This is a global village and we're facing cultural diversity every time we turn around. Anthropology professor Michael Higgins is among the UNC faculty who demonstrate such cultural sensitivity on the global level. He involves his students in activities with Greeley's Chicano community and conducts firsthand research in Mexico. But this is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of the professional activities and achievements of Brunswig, Wanner, McBeth and Higgins, who all hold doctorates in their field.
