AWARD NOMINATION CALL FOR ANECDOTES:<\/strong><\/p>\n

We mentioned earlier this month<\/a> that\u00a0sociologists Michael Kimmel and Abby Kinchy are nominating us for the American Sociological Association\u2019s\u00a0Distinguished Contributions to Teaching Award<\/a>. \u00a0The award is given to sociologists who have made \u201ca significant impact on the manner in which sociology is taught at a\u00a0regional, state, national, or international level.\u201d \u00a0 Kimmel and Kinchy are seeking\u00a0short anecdotes or testimonials from sociologists who have found Sociological Images to be useful in the classroom. \u00a0We are so pleased at the response so far, and want to make one final, humble solicitation for such anecdotes. \u00a0They can be\u00a0emailed to Abby Kinchy (kincha@rpi.edu) or added right here in the comments.<\/p>\n
