Samuel Rumschlag

In 2015, Samuel Rumschlag graduated from Lee with a double major in anthropology and humanities. Following the completion of both his BA and Master of Arts degrees, Rumschlag was immediately hired by the Wisconsin Historical Society as an archaeologist. It is unusual for students to be hired right out of school, and he largely credits his success to Lee’s anthropology program and faculty. “Although Lee is a small school, its size gives students the opportunity to develop relationships with faculty and receive mentoring from them in a way that is rarely available at a larger school,” said Rumschlag. He says the faculty and the opportunity to meet established people in his field as major factors in preparing him for full time employment right out of college.
