He has also worked paleoanthroplogical sites in Southern France, Spain and Italy. He brings this experience to his teaching where he emphasizes a cultural-ecology approach. He also likes to highlight the practical applications of cultural resource management as a career option to students. Professor Torres is of Chicano and Navajo descent and it is very important to him to make connections between the past and present. This includes working and sharing with Native people, discussing the transition from pre-Columbian and modern Native art, recording and learning about in-use-sites and listening to oral traditions as told by the elders.
