"At the end of the day, the mask doesn't represent a lack of choice, but a good one. It's been recommended by public health experts for personal safety and not for political or religious reasons. It's more than a symbol. Bound by politics and danger - and what we anthropologists call a social contract - what we wear is not immaterial." Read more from Roxanne Varzi, anthropology, in this piece she penned for the Daily Pilot. |

| We are not your standard school. Like Peter, our beloved Anteater mascot, we're quirky and different. We're on a mission to create positive change in society, economies and human well-being by breaking down traditional barriers and pushing the limits in teaching, research and service. Doing so requires a different attitude, aim and set of actions.
