USU Anthropology Club
During my undergraduate career, I served as the Anthropology Club President from 2024-2025. The faculty advisor during my term was Dr. Angela Montague. The goal of the club was to not only engage students of the major but also those with interest in the field.
My goal was to create a space that students could thrive and grow. In doing so, my plan was threefold. As I stepped into the position, the club was inactive, aside from the back of house paperwork that needed to be organized, the club needed to be revived. To do this, I held at least one event every month. This included movie nights, CV coaching, field school seminars, community outreach such as elementary school visits, and applied archaeology activities such as atlatl throwing, flintknapping, pottery surveys, etc. Through consistent events, I was able to grow member attendance.
My second step was to fundraise. In order to keep the club alive, funds were required to facilitate many of our events. Lastly, I felt that in order to keep the club active after my term, a space was needed for students to study, converse, snack, sleep, and relax. A space that would last. Therefore, I funded personally, and with a small grant, a club room for anthropology students. It is equipped with a Keurig, mini fridge, microwave, two couches, desk, office chair, and a desktop computer with ArcGIS. The room is stocked consistently with drinks and snacks along with toiletries, hygiene products, cleaning supplies, and club storage. We also have a library with textbooks used in current courses that students can check out for free. With these accomplishments, the club was presented its very first award, the Growth and Outreach Award by the university.
