Christine Sierra O'Connell and Brooke Laura Krause are keeping us up to date as they both start fieldwork adventures in Brazil and Guatemala, respectively. It's surprisingly difficult to describe our nerdy research in succinct and accessible ways, so kudos for getting started, you two.
Also, with so many people doing fieldwork (or maybe just my friends... warning: selection bias), you'd think it was logistically easier to leave the university on some sort of 'fieldwork status.' Turns out there are a lot of forms to fill out and strange wavers to sign when you attempt to maintain active-student status without being at the university. With or without completed forms, I'm on my way to Tanzania in February for five months!
