Hello All,

We are pleased to announce the kick off of the new UMASA website which is full of all of the information you’re accustomed to here, and more.

There is a full calendar of events, posters (also posted here) of upcoming events, photos from old events, information on how to get involved, a contact form and lots and lots of links to useful pages to help you survive your academic career.

We hope that the new site will be easier to navigate and keep on top of what’s happening. Please send us feedback about the new site or anything else related to your student group, UMASA on the contact form on the new site (including anonymous commenting if that is your preference).

If you have already done this, but continue to not receive e-mails, please check your spam box, as others have found our e-mails showing up there. Simply add us as a contact or mark a few of these e-mails as ‘not spam’ and this should be resolved.

Cheers,

SOLUTIONS:

a) e-mail uofm.anthros@gmail.com and indicate that you would like to be on our mailing list. Note: if you are a gmail user, you will still need to contend with issue b)

b) go to your spam box, mark our previous messages as ‘not spam’, and/or add uofm.anthros@gmail.com to your contact list

The Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography Issue #1 and Call for Papers

Mon, 05 Sep 2011 15:33:16 -0400

The inaugural issue of The Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography is now online.

The Journal for Undergraduate Ethnography (JUE) is a new online journal for research conducted by undergraduates that seeks to distribute original student-produced work from a variety of disciplinary areas. The goal of the editorial board is to bring readers, especially other undergraduates, insights into subcultures, rituals, and social institutions.

The JUE encourages current undergraduates or those who have graduated within the past twelve months to submit original ethnographic manuscripts for consideration. Manuscripts can include research on any subject and faculty members are also encouraged to recommend promising student work.

Submissions are welcomed. Please check the website or Facebook page for details, or contact Jason Patch for more information.
