Burning Man Culture, an Anthropology Questionaire

Post by Anthrocat » Wed Aug 05, 2009 6:07 pm

Hello! Looking for people that are going to Burning Man or have been to answer an anonymous questionnaire. I’m doing anthropological research for an undergraduate dissertation. I will be there this year but hope to get more info online before the event and continue after. Post here or PM me if you are interested in participating. Cheers! Anthrocat 8)

So, thumbs up or down. Are the Antro folks more or less annoying than the Miraclists?

Less annoying than the hippies. More annoying than Scientologists.

Most here don't want to do your term paper.

Oh, and puh-leeze spare us the academic rationale justifying this bogus use (and suspect validity) of the electronic format to get your grade.

Cheesus, why is it that poly sci majors never come skulking over here to have their homework done for them?

Here's how it might have worked (sucha long shot) when I was in college. Let's say I needed to get money from my parents and use their car to go to Burning man. If it was for schooooool than maybe it would be easier for them to say o.k.

We might actually be a useful political science study.

Some here even take the political viewpoint of bears.
