Asian American Studies Minor
Courses in the Asian American Studies
minor familiarize students with the histori-cal,
socioeconomic, and cultural adapta-tions
that peoples from Asia make when
coming to the United States. The curricu-lum
is designed to enable professional men
and women to understand and to interact
with people from ethnic subcultures in our
pluralistic society. The Asian American
Studies Minor therefore complements any
major dealing with human behavior. For
more information, see Asian American
Studies on page 413.
Minor and Certificate

A minor and a certificate in Southeast
Asian Studies are offered at this university.
The requirements for both the minor and

American Studies Program.
COURSES
Anthropology (ANTH)
A. THE CORE CURRICULUM
1. Introduction to
Physical Anthropology (3)
Examines the biological basis of being hu-man.
It compares us with our primate
relatives, traces the evolution of our species
from 4 million-year-old australopithecines,
and accounts for the great anatomical and
biochemical diversity among modern hu-man
populations. (CAN ANTH 2)
2. Introduction to
Cultural Anthropology (3)
Examines the nature of culture, humanity’s
unique mechanism for adapting to the
changing environment. Explores the vari-eties
of human life and explains how cul-ture
has made possible the range of differ-ent
and successful societies, from hunters
and gatherers to industrial civilization. G.E.
Breadth D3. (CAN ANTH 4)
3. Introduction to Prehistory
and Physical Anthropology (3)
Examines the biological and cultural basis
of being human. Compares us with our
primate relatives, traces the biological and
cultural evolution of our species from ear-liest
ancestors, through the development of
agriculture to the emergence of civilization.
G.E. Breadth D3.
30. Critical Thinking in Anthropology (3)
Distinguish belief vs. knowledge and fact
vs. opinion; examine relationship between
language/logic; use inductive/deductive rea-soning;
recognize informal/formal falla-cies;
appreciate socio-cultural context of
critical thinking. These skills are applied to
topics of race/intelligence, religion/values,
and social policy. Skills demonstrated/as-sessed
through oral and written perfor-mance.
G.E. Foundation A3.
Special Resources and Facilities
Directed by professors Ludwig and Pryor,
the Anthropology Department provides
data collection, analysis, and student train-ing
in both archaeological and ethnographic
studies. Advanced students may also pur-sue
specialized training and research into
the chemical composition of archaeological
materials in our chemistry laboratory, which
is under the supervision of Professor
LaJeunesse. C. Kristina Roper manages our
contract archaeology program, which pro-vides
students with practical experience in
public archaeology.
