Why do some groups of people have many opportunies — and others struggle to make it? Where do I start if I want to effect social change? These are the quesons that catch the aenon of students in Introductory Sociology classrooms and carry them through a ma- jor in the field. Sociology guides students in making connecons between their own individual experiences and the interacons and social structures that shape those experiences. Sociology students study paerns in interacons, experiences and life outcomes — parcularly as they relate to group membership. For example, fathers in the United States are more likely to acvely parcipate in day-to-day parenng than they did 50 years ago. In explaining these changes, and in idenfying structural changes needed to bring about different social arrangements, sociologists study race, social class and gender. Sociologists also consider culture, social movements, globalizaon, deviance and crime against communies and their environments. Few disciplines have such broad scope and relevance. Indeed, sociology seems to offer something for everyone who is anxious to understand the web and rhythm of human behavior. Society is increasingly in need of people who can understand the complexies of a mulcultural society. Sociology graduates offer a unique understanding of the social world and possible social soluons to major social issues, as well as the day-to-day issues faced by every organizaon.
