2017 SAGE TIPD Award

04/18/17

Two recent Sociology Ph.D. graduates are recipients of the 2017 SAGE Teaching Innovations & Professional Development Award. Congratulations to our very own Dr. Laura Atkins and Dr. Joanna Perez. We are proud of you!

SAGE Awards are inspired by the authors of Our Social World: Introduction to Sociology, and made possible by the generous contributions of numerous influential SAGE authors and editors, the SAGE Teaching Innovations & Professional Development Award* (now in its tenth year) will once again help a group of graduate students and pre-tenure faculty attend the annual American Sociological Association pre-conference workshop hosted by the Section on Teaching and Learning in Sociology.
