"Archaeology is just a more productive form of boring": Learning by Doing on the Kenyon-Honduras Program

Summary

This is an abstract from the "I Love Sherds and Parasites: A Festschrift in Honor of Pat Urban and Ed Schortman" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Long before terms like "underrepresented," "community engaged learning," and "undergraduate research" were popular in the field of study abroad, Urban and Schortman gave undergraduates an unparalleled field research experience. This paper explores some of the highlights of the student experience, while speaking to the immense contribution the Kenyon-Honduras Program has made to the field of study abroad, the lives of those impacted by the program, and the knowledge of the pre-history of the Santa Barbara, Naco, and Cacalaupa regions of Honduras.
