Episode 3: Academic Archaeology with Lisa Hodgetts




Description:

In this episode, Isabelle and Sydney chat with Dr. Lisa Hodgetts, an anthropological archaeologist whose current work centers on community archaeology in the Western Canadian Arctic. We discuss transitions within academia, how her approach to research has changed over time, and the importance of balancing various responsibilities as an academic. Lisa shares some wonderful advice for students, and an interesting story from her time in the field (polar bears, anyone?).
