Anthropology Group Advising Meeting

Each semester, we hold a group meeting where students can learn about the schedule of classes for the next semester. Usually we hold the meeting about a week prior to when the course schedule is available across the university. Come to these meetings to learn about anthropology classes, field programs, and advising tips! We will also announce the anthropology award winners for the semester.

The Fall 2026 meeting is Friday October 16, 2026 from 2:00-3:00pm. Ways to attend are in person and via Zoom. 

Anthropology majors and Applied Anthropology graduate students receive email notification about the upcoming meetings, including a Zoom link. If the meeting is within the next week and you did not receive the message, or have any questions, please contact the Anthropology Department Coordinator Rene.Smith@humboldt.edu, or the Anthropology Department Chair(s). 

Here is a PDF of the slide show from the October 2026 advising meeting.

Anthropology Club

The Anthropology Club organizes social activities like craft nights, movie screenings, archeological walks and more. Meeting days and times vary. Follow their Instagram for up to date information.

Anthropology Student Research Symposium

Undergraduate and graduate students are encouraged to present their original anthropology-related research, project, or theoretical paper at our annual symposium. 

Rotation of Online and In-Person Offerings

We know that some students prefer in-person classes and some prefer online classes, and that this preference can change from semester to semester and class to class. The document linked below is our best estimate of course modes over the next approximately 5 years so you can plan for what works best for you!
