sls project

SLS Project is an info space for courses taught in the Anthropology Dept. at Washington U. in St Louis (Prof. Bret Gustafson). Confronting St. Louis and MO politics has made me a bit outspoken. Opinions are my own, not the university, not the students, not the department. On St. Louis: @slsproject On energy politics: @energy_politics

WHO WE ARE

We are independent researchers, including undergraduate and graduate students and faculty. We carry out our research under the oversight of the Washington University Human Subjects Review Board. However, we do not represent Washington University and are not associated with the various official activities of the university in relationship to public schools. In addition, while we are in dialogue with many people in the district, we do not represent the St. Louis Public Schools (SLPS). For more information, write the project coordinator, Bret Gustafson (gustafson [at] wustl.edu).
