GUIDED in 1999 by Professor Rory McVeigh, the Sociology Senior Seminar is a practicum in which students draw on their acquired knowledge of sociology to develop independent research projects. Six seminar students presented research findings from their projects at the annual meeting of the Eastern Sociological Society in Baltimore in March. Here are students and their projects in Fall 1999's Sociology Senior Seminar, with an asterisk indicating presentation at the 2000 Eastern Sociological Society meetings.
