It is now in the final stages of accreditor approval and is part of our effort to grow our undergraduate programs and impact. We welcome you to see what our faculty and students are up to through <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/wsuanthropology\">Twitter<\/a> (@wsuanthropology), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/WSUAnthropology\">Facebook<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/wsuanthropology\">Instagram<\/a> (wsuanthropology).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-c49ce2b0-e405-4bb2-9208-82ceb78f4f49\">The generosity of our alumni and friends helps us to welcome the William D.
