@UW_Archy269 Lately, my roommate and I have been addicted to the show “Wife Swap.” If you look past the drama, the show actually documents a lot of interesting archaeological information, displaying the way families live/what they own in different parts of the US. #UW_Archy269

@UW_Archy269⁩ One of my favorite places in Seattle is meridian park and the Good Shepherd Center. I used to do summer camps in the center, and as I got older I would hang out at the park with my friends all the time. It’s a very nostalgic place for me, but it also has a ton of

I can rely as much on public scholarship because it isn’t required to be peer reviewed. In psychology we’ve been reminded that even experts can be biased, and peer review is something that can counteract that. Not really a question, but I’m curious to hear thoughts #UW_Archy269
