The goal
of the Student Section is to promote the interests and resources of the
Paleoanthropology Society within the student community. It is designed to encourage
student membership and participation within the Society, and provide a source
for student-specific information regarding the study and application of
Paleoanthropology. The idea for creating the student section was posed and
agreed upon by the attending Paleoanthropology Society members and officers
at the 2007 Paleoanthropology Society business meeting in Philadelphia.
