Gifts to the Department of Sociology enable us to provide support for faculty and student research and travel, graduate student fellowships, and academic enrichment activities including guest speakers, visiting faculty, and symposia. Each gift, no matter how large or small, makes a positive impact on our educational mission and furthers our standing as one of the nation's preeminent liberal arts colleges at one of the world's preeminent universities.

Sociology Alumni Association (SAA)

The SAA was formed in 2007, and serves alumni from all three undergraduate majors (human services, criminal justice, and sociology) as well as the graduate programs.

Our objectives and goals include to:

  • Allow the department to keep up-to-date with alumni successes
  • Connect alumni and current students for mutually beneficial internships and jobs
  • Help alumni get better jobs and into better graduate or professional schools
  • Enable current and former students to be aware of alum and student accomplishments
  • Bring alumni back into the classroom to share their professional experiences
  • Enable alumni to help us further strengthen our dynamic and high achieving department by supporting current faculty and students, whether with money, time, or advice
  • Establish alumni-defined awards for students and faculty
