Donald Johanson Dress-Alike Day
at Rutland High School, April 2003

As part of our studies of early man we viewed portions of the Nova series In Search of Human Origins hosted by Donald Johanson. Noticing that Dr. Johanson had a penchant for khaki shorts and denim shirts, we decided to get in the mood for a trip to Hadar by dressing the part. Below are the Donald Johanson Dress-Alikes.

In front of sign: Katie Netsch and Mr. Peterson.

For more information on Dr. Johanson and his work visit the
Institute for Human Origins website.
Or visit the IHO's educational website
Becoming Human for paleoanthropology news and activities.
It's the next best thing to a trip to Hadar!
