Virginia Anthropology Society
at University of Virginia
About VAS
Purpose: To encourage the exploration of cultures, various aspects of humanity and the different areas of Anthropology with fellow peers and professors.
The Virginia Anthropology Society (VAS) at the University of Virginia is a society of undergraduate anthropology majors that wish to deepen their exposure to alternate worldviews. It is comprised of students involved in the wide-ranging discipline, including archaeologists, linguists and socio-culturalists. Our fundamental goal is for our members to interact with fellow anthropology enthusiasts and engage with topics of anthropology beyond the classroom.
