Help Preserve California's Past!

California has a rich historic and prehistoric heritage. The collections at SDSU represent and preserve this heritage. You can help to protect them by participating in our Educational Outreach Program. San Diego State University graduate students in anthropology visit public schools, private schools, or organizations to talk to students about archaeology. Archaeological collections will be brought to schools with information on California's exciting past.

Learn

What archaeology is
What an archaeologist does
What career opportunities are available within the field of archaeology
How archaeologists are unlocking secrets of ancient life, not only world-wide, but right here in San Diego

Our goal is to stimulate the student's interest in archaeology, while at the same time recognizing the importance of cultural heritage, and to respect the archaeological record by not removing artifacts or damaging sites.

Available to grades Kindergarten through 12, by appointment
