Dear Anthros,
We are being given a great opportunity with lecture from Arthur Kleinman. This is one of the “big names” in Cultural, Psychological and Medical Anthropology today. If you have taken Applied Anthropology with me, you would have read his “AIDS as Human Suffering” (with Paul Farmer).

I strongly encourage your attendance at this rare event.

DATE: Thursday, April 1
LOCATION: East Engineering 191
TIME: 7:00pm

TITLE: "Culture and Depression: Studies in Anthropology & Cross-Cultural Psychiatry of Affect and Disorder."
