Course Proposals
Let’s Talk About Death! Pop Culture, the Macabre and Death
- Syllabus
- From my experience blogging and doing public engagement, I am proposing a course that uses pop culture as a way to engage students in discussions about death, diversity, and mortuary archaeology.
Archaeology of Death
