A closer look: Tim Held is a biological anthropology graduate student who plans to focus on North American Eocene paleontology while at WMU. In the summer of 2008 Tim joined Dr. Anemone's research team in Wyoming where they found an extremely rich Eocene fossil deposit that will be the basis of his Master's thesis. He is currently a T.A. for the Race, Biology and Culture class. Previous anthropological/paleontological experience includes: working a season on the Wenas Creek Mammoth site, one year at the Chimpanzee Human Communication Institute in Ellensburg Washington, one quarter of independent study in the University of Washington's Burke Museum and two summers working as an archaeologist for the U.S. Forest Service.
