Anthropology Day! (Museum closure)
Happy Anthropology Day! To celebrate, the Anthropology Department here at Eastern has a table in the Campus Union Building (CUB) and we will be showing clips from movies featuring anthropology until 3 pm in the Aztec Room! Because of this, the museum will be closed until around 2 pm today so that both students and staff can help with the booth. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we hope to see you there! #closures #museum #anthropologydepartment #events #hours
