I Need Voices

    My notebook story is going well. It could go even better with a little audience participation. One of the main characters is a university student and her major is anthropology. I would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone who has studied/is studying anthropology/archaeology/history (this story is somewhat superheroic, hence the broad-spectrum speciality, much as the other principal is majoring in Science!) whether by email or IM.
    To help with that I have just created a new gmail and aim account (in addition to all the other ways I am contactable), both called CelestialJayde. They would have been aesmael except that one is somehow taken.
    Anyone who can tell me about living in a dormitory, that would be super awesome too. I won't promise to use what anyone tells me but at least this way if the story is unrealistic it will be by choice or human error.

    Forgot to say, a big part of what I am after is the experience of being an anthropological student and how these subjects are taught as well as any background on the subject(s) [it](them)sel[f](ves).

    No apologies for parentheticals!

My sister is doing her masters in anthropology!

I dunno if you can contact her tho? She's very.. closed. And if she talks she'll be condescending :(

I can help with some things maybe? :(

Help would be appreciated. I'm more interested in how the subject is taught to students right now, since that is the content more likely to make it into the actual story.
