Forensic Anthropology Lab Volunteer
Are you a fan of bones, mysteries and colonial history? The Forensic Anthropology Lab, which is part of an exhibition called Written in Bone: Forensic Files of the 17th Century Chesapeake, is a hands-on learning space where visitors can work to solve a realistic forensic case studying real human bones and using the tools and techniques that forensic anthropologists use in their line of work. Volunteers will answer questions, help visitors in their exploration of bones, facilitate hands-on learning activities and help them understand what kinds of information scientists gain from bones.
REQUIREMENTS:
• An interest in anthropology, science and natural history, is recommended. A background in anthropology, forensics or teaching is preferred, but not required.
• Enthusiasm for working with people of all ages.
• Eagerness to learn.
• Good oral communication skills.
• Summer volunteers are required to serve a minimum of two 3-hour shifts per week. Weekday and weekend opportunities are available in the morning and afternoon.
• Attendance at Museum orientation and training sessions. Training includes directed, independent study and research; introduction to object-based inquiry strategies and techniques; mentoring by experienced volunteers; lectures and demonstrations by Museum educators and research scientists; lab activities; and on-the-job experience.

The most important aspect of this list is that it is for one purpose only.: announcing jobs/non paying volunteer postings in the international CRM field at all levels; Field Tech, Professors, SHPO's, etc... Caveat Emptor though my friends. Not all jobs pay the same, nor is their treatment of employees the same - as the companies are checking your references, you should also check them out - make sure they pay fair wages, treat their employees professionally, and do quality work. If you have at least a BA you deserve fair remuneration, so ask for it, and in turn you provide your employer with excellent service. You ARE a trained professional, NOT a "shovelbum" - the name is in jest - act professional, expect to be treated like one.
