BU Giving Day HUGE success for the Anthropology Department!
From Department Chair, Prof. Nancy Smith-Hefner:
“Giving Day was a huge success thanks to all of you! We had 61 donors and raised almost $15,000! A significant amount of that money will go to establishing the annual Fredrik Barth Lecture Series with the inaugural lecture planned for the spring of 2022.
This is the first year the department has made a concerted effort to compete for university funds and it looks like we have won an additional $10,000 based on our 1220% improvement in number of donors compared to 2019! This money will go to support student programs and initiatives and general department needs.”
Thank you all for your participation!
