What is a good second major to complete with Forensic Anthropology?
I plan on completing a BS in Anthropology, MS in Forensic Anthropology, and continuing on to complete a PhD in Anthropology at BU. What would be a good complementary second major for my undergrad degree to broaden my career choices? I would like to keep my options open in case I decide to change careers/degree tracks later on.

Not sure what you have in mind when you say other career choices but psychology, sociology and biology are also great choices which would complement an anthropology degree as well.
Also, when speaking in terms of having other career options, maybe consider something like an MBA in Public Health.

Perusing a Ph.D. ( I completed the coursework but quit the program when I was studying for comprehensive exams) is pretty close to an all-in or not sort of choice. I suggest focusing on what you like now, what interests you now, not on your complete academic and career path. Study anthropology if that's interesting to you. Add a second major if you can without harming your grades and you have the interest. Then go from there.....
