ABSTRACT:
TAYLOR, Nicole (SAR) Preparing PhD Students for Non-Academic Careers. Are PhD programs in arts and sciences addressing the needs of students seeking non-academic career paths? Today’s PhD candidates require diverse training that prepares them for multiple career paths, including corporate, government, and non-profit work, as well as academia. How can graduate education provide role models, professional development opportunities, and value systems to help students succeed in non-academic career paths? The purpose of this roundtable discussion is to reflect on what is needed to train students for non-academic careers, share successful strategies, and identify areas for improvement. 
Session took place in Vancouver, B.C. Canada at the 76th Annual Meeting of the Society for Applied Anthropology, March 29 - April 2, 2016.

The Raw, the Cooked, and the Packaged: Anthropologists Intersecting with Business and Food - Q&A

The Raw, the Cooked, and the Packaged: Anthropologists Intersecting with Business and Food 
CHAIR: ERICKSON, Ken C. (U S Carolina) POWELL, Michael (Shook Kelley) Food Retail Brands as Cultural Mediator: Curating and Creating Value in a Complex Supermarket Environment 
ERICKSON, Ken C. (U S Carolina) That’s Some Good Food Right Here: Value Transformations in the QSR (“Fast Food”) Product Itinerary 
MOYNIE, Bruno (Independent) The Taste of the Road: A Visual Ethnographer’s Glimpse at the Food and Social Landscape along the Mississippi River

CULLEN, Makale F. (lore) A SHED for Prunes and a RAFT for Crane Melons: Designing Cultural Content for Multi-Use Commercial Food Spaces
 
ABSTRACT:
ERICKSON, Ken C. (U S Carolina) The Raw, the Cooked, and the Packaged Anthropologists Intersecting with Business and Food. Food—in American grocery stores, fast-food joints, US homes, or in eateries in Mainland China— shape, reflect, and contest what it means to be human and what it means to operate a grocery store or a restaurant. What happens, then, when businesses, customers, and anthropological practices intersect? The anthropological engagements with business clients reported in this session will explore how and why anthropological involvement with food is so often fraught, sometimes delicious, and always part of anthropological work.

ABSTRACT:
SNODGRASS, Jeffrey G. (CO State U), DENGAH, Francois (USU), GRAVLEE, Clarence C. (UF), ANDREWS, Courtney and DRESSLER, William W. (U Alabama) Cultural Models, Resilience, and Health. There is a growing body of literature demonstrating that individuals’ understanding of and consonance with cultural models are associated with health status, SESSION ABSTRACTS107 assessed in a variety of ways.  The papers in this session further explore these associations in a number of settings, including rural India, urban Brazil, and the United States.  A critical focus is on how knowledge of and consonance with cultural models contribute to individual resilience in the face of adversity.  The papers demonstrate the utility of a distributional model of culture in resolving fundamental questions in medical anthropology.
