Well the end of the term is approaching… and what are my anthropological thoughts at this time of the academic year? Firstly, going to university is the most exciting activity you can ever imagine. The main reason for this is of course anthropological! You get to meet people from all over the world, which gives you possibilities of getting to know other cultures and customs, languages and behaviours. There is one thing I particularly love observing in my seminars. Apart from following the topic and listening to people’s interesting comments and discussions, I have been observing the human differences arising from various cultural backgrounds. I feel like I really need to mention the difference of the American and British style of leading seminars by lecturers. And I am definitely not generalising or judging here, just noting my observations! I have/had these two lecturers. One is American and the other one British. Their seminars are held in such different ways, it feels amazing. Also all students with various backgrounds seem to express themselves in different ways to others and vice versa. I am so happy I get to study anthropology. It is making me see the world in a way I’ve never seen it before. I notice things that are indeed very important and unbelievably beautiful!
