The University of Arizona

Inequality Workshop Schedule




The Inequality Workshop offers a platform for faculty and graduate students at the University of Arizona who are studying inequality on the basis of gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality and/or class to workshop papers and exchange ideas. The Inequality Workshop meets three times each semester to discuss a paper related to the theme of inequality. A faculty or graduate student discussant provides the initial comments on the paper, after which other workshop members provide their feedback. Although the workshop stresses sociological methods of analysis of inequality, students and faculty from other departments are invited to submit papers and attend the workshops.
