Tulane University

The Tulane Anthropology Student Association and the Graduate Studies Student Association are proud to present a talk by Dr. John Hoopes, visiting professor and Greenleaf Distinguished Chair in Latin American Studies at Tulane University. The talk, Pre-Hispanic Migrations in Central America: What We Think We Know and What We Wish We Knew will focus on how anthropological perspectives drawn from archaeological, linguistic, and genetic evidence shed light on the nature of human migration in the Americas through time.

The Tulane Anthropology Student Association is a graduate student organization whose year-long representatives serve as liaisons between the anthropology faculty and student populations. TASA representatives also organize the colloquium series. Colloquia are held in the first floor of Dinwiddie Hall and provide a venue for upper level graduate students, faculty members and outside scholars to present and discuss their anthropologically-themed research. The Graduate Studies Student Association is a student-government for all graduate students, Masters and PhD, at Tulane University.
