Steele" Reply-To: TEACHSOC@maple.lemoyne.edu Subject: SAS MEETING: CALL FOR PARTICIPATION - EARLY REGISTRATION- SAVINGS! -- 1997 Annual Meeting BURSTING THE BOUNDARIES: New Theories and Methods in Applied Sociology 15th Annual Meeting of the Society for Applied Sociology Hyatt Regency Oak Brook, Oak Brook, IL October 30 - November 2, 1997 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Participation --------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE CONFERENCE THEME: As the world around us changes rapidly, so must applied sociology. We can no longer rely on standard theories and research methods to provide the answers needed to answer critical questions. During the 1997 meetings, we plan to open a discussion on the ways that new theories such as chaos/complexity theory and methods such as ethnomethodology can help applied sociologists provide better solutions to the problems they research. THE PROGRAM: The program will contain a diverse collection of papers and presentations. More importantly, we will offer a number of workshops and other types of professional training sessions. Both academic and non-academic sociologists will find that SAS welcomes their contributions to the discipline. WE ENCOURAGE STUDENTS! Graduate and undergraduates students find our professional meetings friendly and supportive. We offer a student mentoring program, a paper competition, workshops on job seeking and opportunities to fully take part in out program. SUBMIT YOUR PROPOSAL NOW!
