Studying sociology helps students better understand their own life. The "sociological imagination" allows students to recognize that their own experiences and circumstance are not unique; rather, there are patterns in behaviors, processes, and opportunities that lead to differences in people's lived experiences, in turn leading to disparities in outcomes. Studying social inequality and social problems often leads to the desire and motivation to change society for the better.
Our students want a more just, a more equitable, and a healthier world.
