Informed and Informative Bioarchaeology with Meg Hardie
Today in honor of Halloween my roommate Meg Hardie joins the podcast to talk about her love of Halloween as well as her journey in anthropology. For a quick preview, Meg received her MA in Anthropology from GMU in May of 2022, and since graduating has been a contract osteologist for the Smithsonian Institution’s repatriation department. Prior to graduate school Meg worked at the UTK Body Farm and discusses her experiences there. Additionally, Meg talks about her goals for her career, her switch from forensics to bioarchaeology, as well as her graduate and undergraduate theses. Meg believes in writing in a manner that does justice to the communities one is working in as an anthropologist, and finds that her English degree benefits this writing style. This is a MUST listen to episode, because not only is Meg hilarious but also brilliant and extremely knowledgeable.
