Wrangham and Ross Blogging from Afar

Currier House Masters Elizabeth A. Ross and Richard W. Wrangham, who are on sabbatical, have been very busy in their months away from Harvard, and in their time away, they’ve put together a blog that chronicles their voyages across three continents.

In Tanzania, Wrangham, a professor of biological anthropology, and Ross visited the chimpanzee research site used by Jane Goodall, Ross wrote on the blog. Wrangham also attended a weeklong conference in Japan for the International Primate Society. Ross, meanwhile, has been continuing her work as executive director of the non-profit Kaiisi Project.

And what about the students back home in Currier? They’re delighted to hear from their House Masters.

“All of us in Currier love Richard and Elizabeth,” said Kevin T. Chen ’13, “So the blog really gives us a chance to keep in touch with them and get a glimpse of what fascinating things they’re doing.”
