Time to Start Looking Ahead to Anthropology in 2007
Today I received an email from another scholar calling for efforts to begin forming sessions for the 2007 Society for Applied Anthropology conference. Sounds good to me. I also need to begin the search for graduate schools for the fall of ’07. Maybe I can write a theoretical paper that discusses my potential dissertation work since I have no true university affiliation to conduct my own research.
The possible topics in anthropology would most likely be dealing with either Wal-Mart, obesity, cognitive anthropology, or some sort of medical anthropology work involving pharmaceutical drugs. As usual I have my research interests whittled down to around three topics. Somehow I need to get my focus pointed once and for all. Perhaps writing theoretical papers in one or more of these topics would help to solidify my interests.
