Awhile back we all had a discussion trying to answer this question, and we realized that web sociology was at once active, reflective, and interactive. You can discuss topics like gender, religion, sex, politics, personal growth, etc., online, with people from all over the world, all ages, male and female, parents and non-parents etc., and actively work to achieve synthesis by listening to different perspectives, disagreeing perhaps, and then learning from them.

In general, the disciplines of sociology and anthropology describe the patterning, problems and prospects of human relationships. That is, they consider how and why people behave as they do, the implications of these patterns for other aspects of social life, and how new ways of living may be built and sustained.

Had you met me as a college freshman, I would have said that I intend to concentrate in mathematics, biology (genetics), or literature. Having grown up in South Korea and Japan - where the sense of being on the intellectual periphery was strong - and in Hawaii - where people didn't by and large care - I was eager to immerse myself in the classics.

Sociology 1 is an introductory course designed for students who will be majoring in the field. It has mandatory discussion sections and in general is a better preparation for majoring in sociology. Sociology 3 is also an introductory course, but is more of an overview of the subject areas in the field and is geared for students who do not plan on majoring in sociology. It is a large lecture course without discussion sections.

Students cannot take Soc. 1 if they have already taken Soc. 3 or 3AC. The provision we make for students who take Soc. 3 is that we waive the Soc. 1 requirement and require that they complete an additional core class (4 instead of 3) to complete the major.

The department offers two introductory courses, which provide overviews of many of the issues studied throughout the program. These two courses are SOC 111 (Introduction to Sociology) and SOC 112 (Introduction to Anthropology). Beyond this level, the coursework in the department is organized within eight themes or focus areas:

The difference is that we've cooked social sciences in GURPS to have applications. Psychology is really about mind control, out-thinking psychos, and predicting what people will do. Sociology is about the same, but for societies. And neither is the classroom subject. This is GURPS' adventure game-nature shining through, once again. We worked hard to give skill applications on adventures in Fourth Edition. The ones that lack those things . . .

Sociology is the scientific study of human social behavior. Sociologists study the processes and patterns of individual and group interaction, the forms of organization of social groups, the relationships among them, and group influences on individual behavior. Focus is given to the understanding of group or other collective factors in human behavior. Anthropology is the study of humankind.

Students must have a 2.0 cumulative G.P.A. and a 2.0 major G.P.A. to declare the major. This is a C average and is considered to be academic good standing in the College of Letters and Science.

Students who are ready to declare should make an appointment to see Kristi, Chaniqua, or Joel. They need to bring the completed Data Sheet for Sociology Majors (blue form outside of 424 Barrows), and a (official or unofficial) transcript of any sociology prerequisites they completed at another college or university. Students can also bring a copy of their Degree Audit Report (or DARS).
