Description Cost
Sec.1 Speaker Honorarium $100.00
Sec.2 Travel Expenses $10.00

STATEMENT OF FACT: Advertisements will read “Co-sponsored by ASWSUV” in 14-point font or font equal to
the average size lettering on the advertisement, for all advertising for the event(s) as required by ASWSUV
By-Laws (260.12). All advertisements shall be approved by the Public Relations Director prior to
distribution (260.13).

Dr. Dawn Nafus is an Anthropologist working at Intel. The allocation of funds will pay for Dr. Nafus to travel to
the WSUV campus to give a presentation about anthropological work and research within the digital culture. The
discussion will take an ethnographic look at project rooms; physical, three-dimensional spaces for writing,
displaying artifacts and media, in addition to debating technological trajectories. This is done in order to understand
how “innovation” is socially organized and practiced in daily life. Tabling in the free speech zone, flyers, and
announcements during Anthropology courses will be used to advertise for this event. An email will also be sent out
to DTC courses.
