Student Sessions   [Details]
Saturday, August 11 - 10:30 AM
 
Whether you are planning to attend graduate school, or are further along and looking toward employment in sociological practice or the academy, there is useful information to be found by attending some of the workshops offered this year. If this is your first ASA Annual Meeting, the Orientation for First-time Meeting Attendees at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, August 11, is simply a “must-attend” event, where you can meet other newcomers and get advice from ASA officers.

Don’t let the huge program overwhelm you. Start by looking at the sessions sponsored by the Student Forum and then check the searchable Program to identify other sessions in your particular areas of interest.
