Description:

This honors course is a reading-intensive introduction to sociology. Students are introduced to the basic concepts and propositions underlying the sociological perspective and are taught to apply this perspective in an analysis of events taking place in contemporary society. The focus of study is how humans interact within a society, both as individuals and as members of groups. Stress is placed on sociological methods and on the terminology used. The attention to both the macro-issues of stratification, inequality and social structure, as well as the micro-issues of socialization, acculturation and the social construction of reality are combined with "real-life" events, making the learningprocess even more relevant.
