Thirteen of these students were from Dr. Mould\u2019s 460 Anthropology Capstone class with these projects being the culmination of their Anthropological education here at Butler University. All students who participated in the URC have been working tirelessly for months conducting research, collecting data, and designing their findings for the public with the help\u00a0of their professor mentors.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-597 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-690x518.jpg 690w, https:\/\/blogs.butler.edu\/lifeHACs\/files\/2025\/04\/IMG_5532-1-980x735.jpg 980w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The day started off at 10:30 when the Anthropology presentation block began in Levinson Hall 120.
