How Do Sports Help or Hinder Gender Identities?
In everyday life today, gender is not a black and white subject. People are not are not always classified into the binary system of just “male” or just “female” anymore if they do not wish to be; there are many levels of gender that fall between a male identity and a female identity, and at least here at the University of Vermont, this fact is both recognized and accepted by most people. Although it is not blatantly obvious that most sports in the United States do not recognize differing gender identities, it is an issue that is at the very least, apparent to me and to my peers. It is very important to note that sports can be a great way for people to express themselves through creative expression and to showcase skill and prowess. However, certain sports have a way of only allowing people that fit the binary system to be accepted, and sports also are able to build and reinforce stereotypes.

Beneficiaries of Anthropological Research: The Individual Anthropologists
Anthropology is a discipline devoted to all aspects of the human interaction and human life. It is a quickly expanding field that involves a great amount of research and investigation into cultures other than our own; research is arguably the most important aspect of anthropology. In my mind, the purpose of anthropological research is to gain knowledge and understanding of other societies. This knowledge can then be used to build a more harmonious and understanding network of cultures. So why should the benefactors only be one or two groups of people? Anthropological research should be used to benefit everyone; the individual anthropologist conducting the research, the group funding or supporting the research, the society being investigated and the rest of the people throughout the world should benefit from the conduction of anthropological research.
