The School of Graduate Studies and Research is pleased to announce that Amanda Poole, Department of Anthropology, received a funding award in the amount of $4,000 from East Tennessee State University for her project, “IUP Appalachian Teaching Project.”
This grant allows Poole to partner students from her Cultural Ecology class with the Indiana Community Garden to work on a sustainable community-based development project. Students will then attend a conference in Washington, D.C. in December, where they will present on their original research.
