SOC 2200 SOCIAL ISSUES AND PROBLEMS IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY

Students investigate social issues and problems in our local community (i.e., the Elon/Burlington area, Alamance County or North Carolina as a whole) and use an interdisciplinary framework, heavily grounded in sociological theory and analysis to discover the connections between local, national and global problems. Study focuses on causes, consequences and policies concerning such problems as poverty and racism and issues pertaining to institutions such as family, economy, government, medicine, religion and others.
