All About Clubs
BY UTKU OBUZ (CTE/I)
Archaeology & Art History Club
The Archaeology & Art History Club is a new association founded this year by Bilkent archaeology students.
In Turkey, even at Bilkent, the majority is either unaware of these two fields or has little information about them. The main purpose of the club is to show what archaeology and art history are and what those who study them are doing.
The club has been established at the very end of fall semester of this year. Therefore, it could only organize a meeting and a movie day. Many members of the club joined the Syria Tour led by the Archaeology Department over the semester break.
