The Archaeology Student Colloquium (ASC) is an academic-leaning organization that brings together those with an interest in archaeology, regardless of whether or not they are majoring or minoring in the subject at the college. The club is made up of really fun and friendly individuals with wide-ranging interests and a passion for sharing them.
The club hosts meetings every other Tuesday at 11:00AM (room number to be updated when established). The first for the 2021-22 school year will take place on August 31st. At these meetings, the club discusses and plans fun activities, shares information on summer work/internship/field school experiences and how to find them, and hosts helpful information sessions about finding and planning for grad school and direct employment after graduation. Outside of regularly scheduled meetings, ASC hosts many fun activities and get-togethers, such as field trips to local museums, occasional excavation opportunities, and more. ASC also hosts three* lectures each semester by guest lecturers on topics of their expertise, which expands the educational horizon beyond Wooster’s scope.

*In the past, ASC has very successfully hosted three a semester. With COVID, this may be impacted. However, we are hoping and striving to return to this!
