Welcome!

On behalf of Princeton University's Sociology Department, we welcome you to the website for the Fourth Annual Inter-Ivy Sociology Symposium, to be held on Saturday, March 29, 2008! The links on the left provide information on our call for papers, how to submit an abstract, and more information about the university, including travel, accommodations, and things to do in the area.

Our theme, "Bridging Boundaries," follows from last year's theme, "Bridging Communities," as we continue to connect across our universities, topics, and methodologies as scholars, peers, and friends. The conference itself will be an opportunity for graduate students from all institutions not only to present their work and get feedback from leading scholars, but also to network with one another, developing professional ties and meeting potential collaborators. The one-day event, on March 29, 2008, will have multiple sessions moderated by faculty and staff at Princeton, along with a closing reception featuring a keynote address given by Professor of Sociology, Mitchell Duneier.

We hope you will be able to join us!

Warm regards,
Rebecca Casciano and Hilary Levey
