...Kennewick Man Caucasian?Thanks to Chatters' mention of Caucasoid features back in 1996, the myth that Kennewick Man might have been European never quite died out. The reconstructed skull confirms that he was not - and Chatters never seriously thought otherwise. "I tried my damnedest to curtail that business about Caucasians in America early," he says. "I'm not talking about today's Caucasians. I'm saying they had 'Caucasoid-like' characteristics. There's a big difference."

There's a general sense, in this last season, of a deathbed taking-stock, even a few self-referential scenes in which the series' history flashes before our eyes.

Amidst the chaos of set construction in Agassiz Theatre, Rohini Rau-Murthy ’08 and Mayuri Shah ’08 appear serene. They laugh at the mention of Bollywood and sigh over Aamir Khan, hunky star of such blockbusters as the Oscar-nominated “Lagaan.” The two, who met through dance and mutual involvement with the South Asian Association (SAA), are the dance directors of Ghungroo, an annual celebration of the many art forms of the Subcontinent. They have been practicing different forms of Indian dance since childhood. Rohini...
