Yama Village: Community College Students Develop an Archaeological Analysis of a Historic Transnational Japanese Community in Washington State.

Summary

Olympic College has created a field school around the historic Japanese immigrant site of Yama Village, on Bainbridge Island, WA. A field school associated with a community college offers access to professional training to a selection of students who would otherwise not have access to this education. Our multidisciplinary approach provides students with comprehensive field experience in the effort to recover this "hidden chapter" in Washington State history.
