content: Education includes class notes, reading notes, and term papers from both undergraduate and graduate studies. It also includes lectures by various well-known anthropologists including Ralph Linton, Robert Redfield, and A.R. Radcliffe-Brown. Class reading and lecture note topics range widely from Physical Anthropology to theoretical issues to kinship to linguistics. Geographically the range is enormously widespread, from Europe to Africa, Latin America and North America, India, and the Pacific including Australia, Polynesia, and Papua New Guinea. The North American material includes a number of tribes but focuses on southwestern groups, including language. The material on India focuses on the Oraon, their socio-political organization and religion. There is an extensive bibliography and field notes from work in the Ross Region of Wisconsin in the 1930s.
