Hey everyone,
We would like to inform you all of our next event for the term, which
will take place on Tuesday, February 10th, from 4pm to 5:30pm. This
will be a "Flint Knapping Workshop", which has always been popular in
the past! Here you will learn some techniques used to make stone tools,
and even try the techniques out yourself with provided chert or flint.
We do not have the location of the workshop on campus yet confirmed, but
we will definitely send you all an email once we do.
Secondly, we will like to advertise a trip to Ottawa, which is being
planned by the Society of Fine Arts, History Society, and the Political
Science Student Association. The trip is planned for the 2nd weekend in
February, and there are still seats open for any students that may be
interested. More details are provided below. If you are at all
interested, please contact estieler at uwaterloo.ca so we can arrange to
collect your fee (the due date for this fee is set for Feb 6th).
Thanks for your interest,
Erin
Anthropology Society
