FAU Graduate, Sarah Nohe, Joins the Staff of the Florida Public Archaeology Network - Southeast Regional Center
Sarah Nohe, a graduate of FAU's graduate program in Anthropology has just joined the staff of the FPAN-SE as its new outreach coordinator.
Her mission is to educate the community, educators, politicians and the public at large about archaeology and how it is relevant and impacts their daily lives.Â
Sarah is well qualified for the position with her masters degree in cultural anthropology, her experience as a teaching assistant and later an adjunct professor for the Anthropology Department, her experience as a high school student studying in England and her travels which include research in Ecuador and travel to West Africa.
The staff and faculty of the Anthropology Department are very proud that one of their students was the strongest candidate for a position that was advertised statewide.
