Selecting a Consultant:

On this page you will find a full list of consultants for the Department Resource Group (DRG).  DRG consultants have many different institutional affiliations and substantive interests but all share a common concern for the advancement of the discipline, as well as the enhancement of departmental programs and curriculum. Regular training keeps consultants current on issues in higher education, literature on teaching sociology and best practices in organizational consulting. DRG Consultants work with both undergraduate and graduate programs, stand-alone sociology departments, interdisciplinary departments and joint programs.  

Current DRG consultants are listed in the table below, along with each consultant's institutional affiliation, program type, CV, and statement of consulting approach.  Their availability is also listed. To contact a DRG consultant, click the "email consultant" link.
