Deborah A. Elliston, assistant professor of anthropology was quoted extensively in a November 22 article, “Practices, Identities, and Desires” in the Chronicle of Higher Education. The article discusses Elliston’s article in a newly published anthology, Out In Theory: The Emergence of Lesbian and Gay Anthropology. The Chronicle’s exhibit at the recent American Anthropological Association’s annual conference in New Orleans also featured the article and the anthology.
