Anthropology departments across the country are facing unprecedented challenges—from budget-driven closures and mergers to increasing threats to academic freedom. Now more than ever, faculty, students, and advocates must come together to protect the future of our discipline.
Join us for a critical Town Hall focused on equipping our community with the tools and strategies needed to push back against these pressures.
This interactive session will feature:
- Expert insights on navigating institutional challenges
- Advocacy and strategies to protect anthropology programs
- Action planning to mobilize faculty, students, and professional organizations
We will also introduce the newly developed Anthropology Department Crisis Toolkit—a comprehensive resource offering guidance on legal advocacy, policy engagement, and faculty organizing.
Your voice and participation are essential. Let’s build a collective strategy to defend anthropology together.
