AGO organized a campus-wide food and coat drive for Alternatives to Violence on the Palouse. This event was so successful, we plan to do it again this year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, AGO hosted various movie nights to attract undergraduates potentially interested in becoming anthropology majors or minors. Finally, AGO planned breakfast events for prospective graduate students while they were visiting Pullman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like AGO to participate in an event, please email us at <a href=\"mailto:AGO.RSO@wsu.edu\">AGO.RSO@wsu.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-400\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1247\" height=\"1559\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AGO_officers-web.jpg\" alt=\"Group photo.\" class=\"wp-image-400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AGO_officers-web.jpg 1247w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AGO_officers-web-396x495.jpg 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AGO_officers-web-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AGO_officers-web-792x990.jpg 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AGO_officers-web-990x1238.jpg 990w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AGO_officers-web-1188x1485.jpg 1188w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1247px) 100vw, 1247px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Beatrice Caffe, Lori Phillips, Daphne Weber, and Caroline Smith<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-image-401\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"450\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AwardReceived-web.jpg\" alt=\"Award of Excellence.\" class=\"wp-image-401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AwardReceived-web.jpg 450w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/wp-cas\/uploads\/sites\/3206\/2020\/01\/AwardReceived-web-396x317.jpg 396w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>AGO was honored with the WSU Award of Excellence for outstanding performance as a Graduate and Professional Student Association in 2017-18.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":244,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"wsuwp_university_location":[],"wsuwp_university_org":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/299"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/244"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/299\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1263,"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/299\/revisions\/1263"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"wsuwp_university_location","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wsuwp_university_location?post=299"},{"taxonomy":"wsuwp_university_org","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anthro.wsu.edu\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/wsuwp_university_org?post=299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
