Graduate Students

I encourage my graduate students to engage in professional development, including presenting papers and organizing sessions at conferences that can then be submitted for publication. In the past five years PhD and Masters students have attended and presented at national and international meetings every year, including the SAAs, AAAs, and EAAs.

PhD students are also strongly encouraged to apply for external funding; in the past five years students working under my supervision have received grants or other financial support from the following sources: Wenner-Gren, Fulbright-Hayes, NSF, IGHERT, AOP, and the AIA.
