Do you have what it takes to be a mentor? Sign up for the Urban Mentorship Initiative (UMI)Contributed by Belisa Gonzalez on 08/25/16
Class component:In order to be involved in UMI students need to sign-up, audit or attend the class CSCR/SOCI 30500 (CRN 23709 or 23708), Practicum in Social Change. The class meets Tuesdays from 4-5:15 in Williams 302. In this course we explore the relationship between educational inequality and social change. The course is a vital component to the experiential aspects of the program outlined above. Although the course is restricted to Juniors and Seniors, Sophomores will be given overrides. This class counts for the Policy and Praxis area for all CSCRE minors and the Social Change designation for Sociology majors. Please contact Belisa González bgonzalez@ithaca.edu if you have any additional questions. |
