How do you design exhibits on local African paleontology? You start by talking to the people who live where the fossils are from. Now we only have bare walls, but we got enough ideas to fill the space...and then some! #rusingaisland

Congratulations to Prof. Meggan Craft, promoted from Associate to Full! Great to celebrate with Provost Croson (left) and Dean DeWalt (right).

Spent all day in retreat with some of the most prominent researchers in Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior. The topic? Teaching. Amazing to work with such dedicated and passionate teachers willing to spend all day workshopping how to better serve our students.

We're building a museum on Rusinga Island to tell the stories of fossils found there and the local people who discovered them! No luck getting funding for this, so we're doing it the old-fashined way: digging in the cushions for coins, and building bit by bit.

Visiting the Dallas Zoo, where they have an exhibit of amazing scientists, and look who is featured: @samscansstuff.bsky.social! Great to see UMN Anthropology graduate and LATIS staff member getting well-deserved national recognition!
