         <description><![CDATA[<p>Plan to be in the museum for an hour to complete the human evolution assignment. If you plan to complete the EC assignment you will likely need more time.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Remember, you need to take a selfie of yourself inside the museum (not the lobby).</p><p><br></p><p>The <em>Spitzer Hall of Human Origins</em> is on the 1st floor. When entering through the main entrance (on Central Park West), it is easiest to walk through the mammals exhibit, on the left, and then walk down the hall behind the cafe, towards the back of the museum (See map). </p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>&nbsp;</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>A note about skeletal fossils</strong> – skeletal fossils are often incomplete (missing parts of skulls, teeth, ribs, etc.) This does not mean the organism did not have those bones, it just means that when the fossils were found and excavated, they were missing pieces. There are multiple other reasons a piece of a skeleton might be missing: pieces may have been crushed over time (broke down), were never found, were damaged when excavating, etc.</p>]]></description>
