its like if you were about to pay for food and the cashier asks

"are you sure you can pay that"

so should i ask "Is forensic anthropology utilized scientifically to determine if a mass grave is the site of a human rights violation?"

I'd say more like

That's a similar argument but carries a lot different weight

and the cashier asks "are you sure I can ingest your meaty urethrastick"

and you say yes

"How" or "Why" it's able to

It's a yes or no question unfortunately

hmm

well

well, not yes/no, but agreeable/disagreeable

yes or no

can still works in that sense

if you were to write it like

"can so so work in this applied area, of course it does" but

even that seems off

this is a 200-level forensic science course so i'm not terribly concerned with converting people, but i'd like to make a strong argument at least

is the point of the assignment to find how its applied or just a way to show you know what forensic anthropology is

like a busy work paper

it's kind of busy work but i'm gonna need to present on it shortly, which is more of like... dirty jobs I guess? everyone chose a topic and some people do serial killers and shit

i could just present some ethical concerns and call it a day

professor had no qualms about the question

serial killers wouldve been an easy paper

shoulda woulda coulda

only thing the professor said was "make sure not to list too many or you'll drown yourself in work"

if your professor isnt tough then i imagine you can let an eh question slip by

yeah, i suppose. he gave me As on the other parts so he's not exactly a hardass when i try

no ones going to mind it after you throw over examples and connections to real life events

that's true, alright, i feel a bit better about that

so i guess i can focus on the ethical, religious, and political concerns of actually exhuming the bodies

yeah because thats the juice

that's like the one roadblock in the process, lol

rest of it is science

id ask your professor after the work is all graded how he'd go about if he was assigned the paper

take whatever he says and apply it next time

good idea

good luck on it

alright, thanks a million, different perspective helped a lot

with your choice it shouldnt be too hard

or, maybe thanks 6 million? <:smug:676905802837262336>
