THE TERMINI SPEAKER EVENT

For more than 20 years, the UTA Anthropology Program has hosted a 2 day event highlighting a globally distinguished Anthropologist. Generously sponsored by Drs. Ben and Trudy Termini, the invited speaker gives a public evening talk, followed the next day by an informal student / speaker lunch discussion. On April 7th, 2022 (7 PM) the event returned to its traditional venue in the beautiful UTA CAPPA Auditorium. We are provided a livestream of the event for those unable to attend.
