Students learn about cells, DNA, genetics, and the four forces of evolution: migration, mutations, genetic drift, and natural selection. The class begins with the colonial history of anthropology and how the field, with its unethical collection of human biological material, contributed to the subtle destruction of "other" Indigenous peoples. This class focuses on the skeletal system and how humans evolved in conjunction with plants, animals, and their environment. The class incorporates hands-on practicums where students learn from a collection of fossil hominid skeletons, replica fossils, and our closest biological relatives, the living monkeys and apes. The course plan prepares students to understand the human body and how healing and growth are processed.Usually HeldMon Tue Wed Thu 9:40am–12:05pm, Mon Wed 1:25pm–2:50pm, Mon Wed 10:10am–11:35am, Mon Wed 10:15am–11:43am
