Sociology is a profoundly liberating discipline. It provides us with new perspectives on the organization of society. We will develop our sociological "eyeglasses" by exploring how issues that appear to concern individuals actually reflect larger social forces. One of the pleasures of being a sociologist is that you can study anything that sparks your interest. Seminar projects will be anchored in students' interests. We will read key theorists who address inequality vis-à-vis social class, work and the economy, mass media, racialization processes, gendering processes, sexuality, disability, education and social change.
