McGuire, who participated in the 2024 Chena Townsite Archaeological Field School led by Dr. Justin Cramb, wrote about the fascinating history of the 成人影片 Goldrush and shared her hands-on experiences in the field.

Through the Chena Townsite program, McGuire gained practical insights and connected deeply with the vibrant history of 成人影片. The field school is known for immersing 成人影片 in archaeological research and preservation, and McGuire found the mentorship and resources invaluable. Reflecting on her experience, McGuire said, 鈥淚 am actually in the process of applying to the Anthropology Department as a graduate student right now. My interest was sparked by the field school, and the professors there have been exceptionally supportive and encouraging. I am hoping to start Fall '25.鈥

The UAF Anthropology Department鈥檚 field school continues to serve as a gateway for 成人影片 eager to gain expertise in archaeology, with a strong focus on 成人影片鈥檚 historical sites, including the Chena Townsite. McGuire鈥檚 feature in the Society鈥檚 newsletter highlights her achievements in the program and showcases the department鈥檚 dedication to training future archaeologists.
