Backstage with TSP<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One thing we’re constantly thinking about at TSP is how much information to include in our Discoveries<\/a><\/em>, short write-ups of new academic research. We want to make sure we’re accurately representing the research and the importance of the finding(s) but we also want to make sure we aren’t bombarding our readers with lots of jargon or complexity that makes the piece less accessible. It’s a tough balance to strike and something we always discuss in on our weekly Discoveries<\/em> workshops. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alumni Spotlight<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In honor of The Society Pages’ tenth anniversary in 2022 we’re highlighting the contributions and ongoing work of our superb alumni!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week we caught up with TSP alum Kyle Green<\/a>. Here’s what he had to say about his time on the TSP board:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Over the course of my four years with TSP I was involved with most, if not all, parts of the project. I think am proud of that. However, I am sure I am proud of four things: (1) Getting to be part of the initial transition from Contexts to TSP when all dreams seemed possible; (2) Working on the Getting Culture<\/em> volume with Stephen Suh; (3) Hosting and producing many episodes of the Office Hours <\/em>podcast with Sarah Lageson; (4) Creating, hosting, and producing the Give Methods a Chance<\/em> podcast with Sarah Lageson. But really, it isn\u2019t what I wrote\/recorded as much as the friends I made (I started writing this statement as a joke but decided it is actually right by the time I finished typing). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

TSP has completely shaped my vision of the discipline and what it could\/should be, for better or worse (usually better). For example, I still am surprised when I meet an academic who does not believe in the inherent value of producing accessible work that can be consumed rather easily by the sociologically interested. I also owe my big tent understanding of the discipline to my time at TSP and I owe my ability to have conversations with scholars across the discipline to my time spent listening to grad board members pitch \u2018citings\u2019 from a variety of subfields. Most directly linked to my time at TSP, I created the Give Theory a Chance <\/a><\/em>podcast and have recorded almost 50 episodes with scholars across the social sciences. I can honestly say that I would not be the researcher and teacher I am today without my time spent as part of the TSP crew.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kyle Green<\/a> is an Associate Professor in the Department of Sociology<\/em> at SUNY Brockport<\/em>. He is also host and producer of the Give Theory a Chance<\/a> podcast. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
