sociologists in the South. Rather than be a panel of experts
talking TO members, this workshop is designed to engage all
members in meaningful conversation that produces actionable
suggestions. A set of facilitators will provide direction and
support as members work together in roundtable format to
formulate ideas on how to increase diversity and inclusion in
the SSS. The session will produce a list of actionable items from
the membership that will be sent to the Executive Committee to
be acted upon. We invite you to join us in beginning this most
important discussion about the future of SSS membership and

Sociology as a discipline has a long tradition of theoretical and
empirical research on parenting. This research is grounded in
historical and contemporary notions of gender and the division
of labor. How do gender and sexuality shape parenting in
professional settings? How can we use our own disciplinary
concepts and tools to address parenthood in academia? Within
academia, parenting is embedded within different contexts and
involves individual, interactional, and institutional processes
that affect the meaning of parenting to women. This panel will
address how parenting shapes and is shaped by our life in
academia. The panelists will offer advice and strategies for
balancing and negotiating parenthood and academia at various
stages in your academic career.

Doing Public Sociology in the Academy (Sponsored by the
Committee on Sociological Practice) - Workshop
Organizer and Presider: Marisa Allison, George Mason
University
In recent years there has been an increased national focus on
the growing number of non-tenure track faculty and the
conditions in which they work. Tenured and tenure track faculty,
who made up almost 60 percent of total faculty in 1975, are
now only 25 percent of the professoriate. Non-tenure track
faculty are the new faculty majority and research shows that
they often lack equitable compensation (with many earning less
than a living wage), with little to no benefits to their
employment, are heavily relied upon to support the teaching
needs of their institutions with little to no assurance of
continued employment, have few advancement opportunities,
and are given little support for their teaching and within their
classrooms. Research has shown that hiring temporary faculty
was initially a short-term solution to a set of larger problems in
9:30 AM-10:45 AM
11:00 AM-12:00 PM
12:00 PM-12:45 PM
higher education, including a booming student population and a
decline in government funding. It has now become the standard
hiring method at colleges and universities across the nation.
This trend toward contingency is accompanied by several welldocumented problems, including a decline in educational
quality, lower graduation rates and less contact time between
faculty and students, band-aid solutions to larger educational
staffing problems such as reduced hiring standards, and the rise
of what has been described as a "caste-based faculty system".
Non-tenure track faculty movements in the U.S. have largely
occurred in states that have collective bargaining rights, though
the employment conditions of contingent faculty members in so
called "right to work" states is likely more egregious. This
workshop, sponsored by the sociological practice committee,
will address the ways in which sociologists are affected by these
changes within the professoriate and how we can support
efforts to improve working conditions on college and university
campuses.

Between them, Dr. Cheryl Brown and Dr. Donald Gregory have
organized and led almost two dozen study abroad and
international service-learning trips on three continents and 10
different countries. Whether working with indigenous groups in
Mexico and Ecuador, examining the pro-democracy tsunami
that swept across Europe in 1989 or observing the identity
movements in Post-War Germany, students are exposed to the
people, places, and ideas that have shaped some of the most
powerful movements in the last several decades. This workshop
will address the key decision making moments in planning one
of the most powerful learning tools at our disposal -- taking
students abroad. We'll cover everything from deciding if this trip
is the best option, going solo or hiring a travel company, can
there be a service-learning component, to balancing the tension
between academics and fun. This workshop is open to
everyone, from those considering a first-time trip abroad to the
grizzled old veterans of such trips.

Like many faculty at institutions of higher education, many of us
received our PhDs from R1 Universities, in which we are trained
to be academics. We were the top students in our
undergraduate programs. Yet the reality is that most of us do
not end up at teaching at research intensive schools. Some of
our students struggle to get Cs in our courses and their career
plans do not include becoming a professor. Data from the
American Sociological Association notes that 60% of those
graduating with Bachelor's degrees in Sociology do not go to
graduate school (Spalter-Roth & Van Vooren, 2010) and that for
those who do go directly to graduate school, more are in
applied programs in social work, health, and policy (SpalterRoth & Van Vooren, 2008). Yet, many times our teaching only
reinforces the conceptual ideas of the field instead of helping
students understand how not only these conceptions, but the
skills they are learning, are useful in applied settings such as
work or applied graduate programs. Research from the
American Sociological Association also notes that we are doing
a poor job in helping our students transition from
undergraduate to careers or applied programs in graduate
school. Internships, service learning, and related out of the
classroom learning activities are suggested methods of
improving students understanding of concepts by "doing
sociology" (Cunningham & Vachta, 2012; Finkelstein, 2010 ).
Furthermore, they are also ways of helping students gain an
edge in a tight job market, to document their skills on resumes,
and to improve their satisfaction with their Sociology major and
career choice (Finkelstein, 2010). While internships, service
learning, and related experiences are great things for our
students, how can we help students who are not going to
graduate school in sociology, but into the workforce or applied
graduate programs, understand how the material they are
learning is applicable to the real world in individual courses or
through our sociology programs? How do we help them
conceptualize and document the critical skills gained in a
sociology major and courses? During this
panel/workshop/roundtable, participants will share ideas on
how to make sociological course content relevant beyond the
classroom and ivory tower in addition to sharing and generating
ideas on how individual instructors, programs, and advisors can
help students document their skills gained through the major. At
the end of the session, participants should be able to leave with
tangible resources for their teaching toolkit in order to help our
students succeed in their transitions from college to jobs or
applied graduate degrees.
