| Welcome to the Sociology Program! | ||
Sociologists study human interaction and organization. The
academic discipline of sociology helps students understand
society and their place in it. Students also learn skills
useful for analyzing topics like poverty, homelessness,
divorce, urbanization, joblessness, inequality, race, class,
and gender. These topics and others make up the focus of
sociological investigation at Lees-McRae College.

Sociology
at Lees-McRae College is an integral part of our learning
community. At
Lees-McRae, we use reading material other than
traditional textbooks.
Students learn to adopt the perspective of others by
reading ethnographic and analytical research.
Many of these books weave a sociological ‘story’
rather than the simple presentation of vocabulary,
perspectives, and theories so characteristic of traditional
textbooks. |

is good to remember . . . that one person's ignorance is
another person's advantage" - Michael Schwalbe |
