RE: MAPS: Aspiring psychedelic researcher looking for guidance

["Neal Goldsmith" <neal@xxxxxxxx>]

Sounds like there may be critical mass to organize a professional
society of students interested in the area.  Maybe something under the
MAPS umbrella..?

It looks as if there are at least three of us in the same boat!
My name is Justin. I am currently attending the University of Virginia,
and
will be graduating in the fall with a B.A. in anthropology and a minor
in
philosophy.
You guys might want to consider doing anthropology. I know of at%20least
two
graduate students here in our department that work indirectly with
psychedelics, one with mushrooms in the highlands of Mexico and the
other
with DMT and the Santo Daime Church.
Check out our people page at
http://www.virginia.edu/~anthro/
especially Roy Wagner and Edith Turner.
Also, you might want to check out the anthropology of consciousness
section
of the AAA:

Good luck to you all!!!!
