Missouri State University Sociology and Anthropology Department

The pandemic has not stopped our faculty and students from civic engagement! Check out this KSMU story about Dr. Walker-Pacheco and the Paws to the Polls movement: https://www.ksmu.org//paws-polls-targets-msu-students-ahea You will also see former Anthropology student Emily Reichgeld who is now in the graduate school at MSU!

Many thanks to Suzanne Walker-Pacheco for sharing this video about her new program, "Paws to the Polls" to encourage student participation in the upcoming election. Check out this video highlighting many of our majors: https://www.missouristate.edu/ADP/paws-to-the-polls.htm

This is the first day of class here at Missouri State! Things appeared to go okay in Strong Hall. Here is a picture of the main office, updated to address social distancing guidelines. You can see Adam and Nicole sporting MSU masks made by Helen Barnett (thanks Helen!).

Another one of our professors found in the media! Here is Dr. Walker interviewed on television recently talking about dating during the COVID-19 pandemic: http://archive.tveyes.com//a7/KOLR_05-03-2020_22.07.08.mp4

Check out these TWO videos of our own Dr. Kyler Sherman-Wilkins! The first one is from The Mystery Hour (about 12 minutes in): https://www.facebook.com/themysteryhour/videos/963215580796670.... The second one is from a presentation he gave at a local church: https://youtu.be/vRFM5EfiQJs. Great interview and presentation! Definitely relevant to what is going on in the country today. Thanks for your work Dr. Sherman-Wilkins!
