I have been told for example that it really helps ion the consideration 
to get into the PhD program at LSU (Louisiana State University) to have 
publications.. If anyone from LSU is on this list maybe they can 
enlighten this. I hope to go to LSU because I wias borna and Raised in 
Baton Rouge, LA and my dad is a Psycology professor there so I could live 
at home. LSU has had some name brand sociologists. I think Leslie White 
and Robert Merton were both there for a time. Tonnies' son-in-olaw was a 
professor there also.  I am sure that presentations or publications 
certianly cannot hurt one's chances of getting into a PhD program.

Sincerely,
