Tip: Taking a few minutes to read about a topic in an encyclopedia may be the most effective and time-saving research tip you can share...
Encyclopedia articles can help with an overview or quick summary of basic ideas. They often include selected bibliographies or lists of references to other works, useful for additional information.
Use these to expand the list of research materials. A bibliography is an instant "shopping list" of the best and most relevant sources on a topic.
The land on which we gather is the unceded territory of the Awaswas-speaking Uypi Tribe. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.
The land acknowledgement used at UC Santa Cruz was developed in partnership with the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band Chairman and the Amah Mutsun Relearning Program at the UCSC Arboretum.
