Abstract
Section V showcases Maria Hagan’s research project for ANTH 797: Race and Racism in Biological Anthropology, a Spring 2025 course with Dr. Amy Michael. Her project, How the Commerce of Human Remains Dehumanizes the Dead, which culminated in an Undergraduate Research Conference presentation, addresses ethical and legal questions surrounding the buying and selling of human remains on social media sites and across state and international borders. Hagan’s work points to possible changes to both social media policy and state and federal law that could have a positive impact on curtailing the practice.
