Appreciation of Evolution, Culture and Society is Found
in Anthropology
Anthropology emphasizes the study of human biological
and cultural evolution and uses a holistic and comparative approach
in the study of culture. Anthropology allows the student to gain
a greater appreciation of the world and its people. It thus plays
an important role in the commitment of Ripon College to the liberal
arts tradition.
The small size of the department is conducive to both a friendly
atmosphere and a close working relationship between faculty and
students. Classes encourage independent thinking and discussion,
and close attention is given to the development of students' research
and writing skills.
