The University of Arizona

Social Organizations Seminar aka "SOS" Schedule




The Social Organizations Seminar is a well established tradition in Arizona Sociology. The primary function of this workshop is to provide a platform for individuals at the University of Arizona who are studying organizations to workshop papers and to facilitate the exchange of ideas. Meetings are held three times per semester. Each meeting opens with detailed feedback from two discussants on the scheduled paper and is followed by additional feedback from all members present.

If you are interested in joining our mailing list, presenting a paper or serving as a discussant please contact Sondra Barringer.
