BETUMI Photo Exhibit at Penn State

Though I'm in Ghana, my thoughts are turning towards the upcoming fall semester that begins at Penn State in August. Helen Sheehy, Head of the Social Sciences and Donald W. Hamer Map Libraries, has curated an exhibit of photos from BETUMI that graces the entrance to the undergraduate social sciences library at the University Park campus of Penn State. I am grateful for the exposure, and hopeful that some of the undergraduates may stop to check out the exhibit and be enticed to sign up for the fall offering of my African Foodways course (AFR297B).

Trailer for AFR297B

 In March I posted the description of the  3-credit African Studies class on Sub-Saharan African food culture I'm teaching this fall (2012) at the University Park campus of the Pennsylvania State University. Here's a brief trailer with more information. If you're part of the Penn State community, please help spread the word.

Also, if you know of any similar courses or resources you recommend, I'd truly love to know about them
