The annual CSAS conference is student-friendly and features a paper competition for both undergraduate and graduate students. It also offers an opportunity for anthropologists from throughout the central states, from institutions large and small, to meet, talk, and network.

The conference will feature a distinguished lecture by Dr. Pascal Boyer, the Henry Luce Professor of Individual and Collective Memory at Washington University, St. Louis. The title of his lecture is “The Naturalness of Social Institutions: How Human Evolution and Cognition Explain Patterns of Human Sociality”.
