Step into the shadows of science this Halloween season! Join the bone-chilling experts from the Forensic Anthropology Center at Texas State University for a dive into the world of forensics. In this hands-on session, you'll uncover the secrets hidden in human skeletal remains. Learn how to identify bones, determine sex and stature from skeletons, and investigate a mock crime scene like a real forensic anthropologist.
By the end of this eerie experience, you'll be able to describe the role of a forensic anthropologist in law enforcement and understand how these experts help bring the dead's secrets to light. We'll also explore the thrilling path to becoming a forensic anthropologist-if you dare!
