Emergency Donations, Texas Fire

Hey y’all,

My name is Cess and I’m a Kappa Delta here. We are having an emergency clothing/donation drive to help the people in West Texas that were affected by a horrible explosion last night. At least 15 people have died, and more are still missing. More than 150 people were injured, and up to 130 homes were completely destroyed. If you have ANY gently used (no tears, stains, broken zippers, etc.) clothing you would be willing to donate we would truly appreciate it. Cash donations are especially appreciated as this will allow us to send other goods and supplies (pillows, blankets, etc.). Our house is located at the corner of 24th and Nueces (it’s big and white, you can’t miss it!). Please come by between 5pm-7pm tonight (Thursday), but if that doesn’t work for you E-MAIL or TEXT me and I’ll make sure someone is home when you bring stuff by. We are accepting donations until further notice, so if you can’t come tonight don’t hesitate to contact me!

Thank you so much!!! Anything is something!

Instructor: Deborah Bolnick

This course surveys the patterns of biological variation within and between human populations.  We will examine physical, genetic, and behavioral traits, and consider both the microevolutionary and cultural processes that influence those traits.  We will also discuss how studies of human variation have impacted society in the past and present.  Topics include: an overview of the principles of genetics and evolution, race, sex differences, human variability in behavior, eugenics and contemporary genetic issues, human plasticity, and disease.

The ANT 301 prerequisite will not be enforced.
