Anthropology 100 is designed to introduce you to the study of anthropology through a series of projects relating the subject matter of anthropology to your own environment and your own life. We study the way human nature relates to culture by examining the origin of human beings, our relationships to other primates, our use of language, and the ways we form groups and communities of gender, religion, race, ethnicity, class, and nation.

The content of the class is divided into weekly units, each consisting of

• A lecture on Monday in Smith 120 from 8:30-9:20
• Two sections with your section instructor on either TTh or WF from 8:30-9:50
• A set of readings, most of them available on electronic reserve at the UW Library System
• A project assignment, whose due date is indicated on the course schedule.
