Dr. Timothy Messner
Students seeking hands-on, applied learning opportunities need to look no further than Dr. Timothy Messner’s experimental anthropology class. The new course was conceived after the success of his four-week summer class, where students built a canoe out of a 16-foot white pine log using Stone Age, handmade tools in the summer of 2015. The class garnered media attention after they successfully paddled the primitive canoe around the Raquette River in Potsdam at the conclusion of the class.
