Johns Hopkins interestingly has quite a few people working in and around visual anthropology. Deborah Poole readily comes to mind. You could also check out Anand Pandian's work, especially his book called "Reel World: An Anthropology of Creation". In fact even Naveeda Khan is also interested in studying photography, alongside her other research interests. They're all in the dept of anthropology at Johns Hopkins.

Hi. I was contacted by a faculty member, apart from adcomm, for an interview. However, I have recently been accepted into my top choice university and while I love CUNY's dept I knew I would not let my top choice go. So I politely told them about it since it could open up a spot for another applicant for an interview.

Does anyone know for sure whether sociocultural anthropology applicants for UPenn have been notified about interviews already or not? I see a lot of notifications for other subfields but none for sociocultural which is making me have irrational hopes.

I am still curious specifically about sociocultural anthro in UPenn and about whether they have sent their emails. I am so tired of my brain thinking so much about so many things.

This is true for all the streams? I applied for sociocultural.

I have but haven't heard from them yet. Last year the emails calling for interviews came around mid-February, plus the deadline this time was Jan 15th. So I guess we should expect them in a few days (that is, if the universe does not hate me).

I don't think UC Davis held admissions for the sociocultural wing this time.
