@tressiemcphd and@zeynep the School of Library and Information Sciences at UNC (@uncsils) has become a really exciting center of public sociology. I hope connections are strong to the 'other' UNC sociology department (where I taught for 19 years),@UNCSociology.2 replies 8 retweets 62 likesShow this thread -

Thank you. I do have friends and colleagues there, adjunct appointment, and sat on dissertation committees as well.

I'm also hoping that sociology can, eventually, do a better job remembering that its origins & conceptual toolkit came out of a big disruption to social fabric that was integrated with the tech/science changes at the time, and these are not some exogenous variables to society.
