Jerry Hinbest | March 1, 2024 - 10:14pm |
What courses does Jerry teach?Beyond introduction to sociology, which all of us teach, the second year course I teach most often is Social Interaction (SOCI 204), which allows me to explore Symbolic Interaction theory in a practical and useful way. I am able to share my love of research by teaching our second year Introduction to Social Research course (SOCI 250) every year and Qualitative Research (SOCI 350) every second year. A new upper level course on Program Evaluation (SSID 370) has been offered once so far, and I hope we can offer it again soon.

What courses does Gillian teach?My teaching and research interests focus primarily on addressing issues of social inequality, including the sociology of families and gender relations; social problems and social policy; the sociology of home; and women’s organizing for social change.

Gerald Morton | June 12, 2024 - 8:50am |
What courses does Gerald teach?As a non-regular faculty I teach whatever I am asked to. In the past couple of years I’ve taught ‘Intro’, ‘Social Inequality’, ‘Race and Ethnicity’ and ‘Consumer Society’.
Why did Gerald choose to teach Sociology?I teach both sociology and anthropology. I’ve always appreciated the symbiotic relationship between the practical, experience driven world of anthropology and the critical perspective of sociology. I choose to teach sociology because I want to keep that dual perspective in my work. |
Bruce McGuigan | March 1, 2024 - 10:13pm |
What courses does Bruce teach?Intro, Inequality, Urban Sociology, Theory, Canadian Society, Sociology of Identity.
Why did Bruce choose to teach Sociology?The BEST thing about teaching is what you learn. In sociology, I learn something new every day, not just from re-reading old books and reading new ones, but from the ideas that come from my students about the social world. I leave every day excited about what I am learning!
