The Department of Sociology and its students benefit greatly from the generosity of donors committed to maintaining the high quality of our programs. There are several ways you can support our students in the sociology and criminal justice majors, as they learn sociological skills and perspectives to prepare them to lead lives of faithful service and leadership.
