EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Department of Sociology and Criminology began its MA in Criminology and Public Sociology in fall 2007; the current program is an MA in Sociology and Criminology. The program focuses on providing students with the knowledge and skills to contribute to the discipline in both an applied setting as well as an academic environment. There are 19 faculty members who comprise our graduate faculty, which is defined as remaining active in research within the fields of sociology and criminology. About half of the current faculty in the Department of Sociology and Criminology are criminologists focusing specifically on crime and the criminal justice system and about half are sociologists focusing on other aspects of the social world. Although the primary disciplinary focus is sociology and criminology, the research interests of the faculty as well as graduate students in the program span other related areas as well including public administration, education, economics, social work, and psychology.

Several minor curricular changes have been made over the last seven years; however, in 2014 the department agreed to rename the program to a Master of Arts in Sociology and Criminology. The purpose of the name change was to broaden our pool of applicants to those interested in a general sociology degree. It is also a better reflection of the work that is done in the department to include the area of general sociology, along with public sociology and criminology. With the program name change, members of the graduate faculty have begun discussions of necessary revisions to the core curriculum to accommodate the general sociology track.

The MA program in Sociology and Criminology is unique in several ways. First, it is a combined program across these two disciplines and students take several core courses together as well as some electives. Second, it explicitly focuses on community-based application and scholarly engagement. The allows the substance and expertise of these disciplines to be shared with organizations, policy makers, agencies, and communities. The philosophy of this community-based approach is to bring the academic study of sociology and criminology directly to end users in practical ways that can both empower them and engage them in addressing practical problems.

An immediate challenge for the program is to recruit and enroll enough students to meet the projected enrollment of 25 students per year. The program currently enrolls 18 full-time students. Other challenges include the need for increases in student support, facilities and personnel to maintain the quality of the program.

1. GRADUATE PROGRAM IN SOCIOLOGY & CRIMINOLOGY 1.1 General Characteristics and Brief History of the Department

In July 1972, UNCW founded the Department of Sociology, offering a BA in Sociology. In 1989, a BA in Criminal Justice was added, with a subsequent name change in 2009 to a BA in Criminology. In 2007, we added an MA in Sociology and Criminology and we are proud to claim many accomplished alumni from our program. We have 19 faculty members who comprise our graduate faculty, which is defined as remaining research active within the fields of sociology and criminology. This faculty is committed to excellence in scholarship and teaching. A particular strength in our department is a public sociology and public criminology cluster that focuses on scholarly engagement in the region. The Department of Sociology and Criminology is committed to the mission and vision of the College of Arts and Sciences that focuses on “serving the betterment of the region, state, nation, and world.” We have been very fortunate in that the College supports our department by awarding both expansion lines and replacement lines as the needs arise. Since our graduate program was established in 2007, we have recruited and retained 9 new faculty members. Our recruitment efforts consistently emphasize the importance of contributing to the MA program during the screening and interview process. We believe this commitment to our graduate program enhances our capacity to recruit and retain excellent faculty to UNCW. The following reports on our Departmental mission statement, and Departmental goals.

Mission Statement: The Department of Sociology and Criminology is committed to providing quality undergraduate liberal arts education for its students, producing new knowledge through scholarship and research, and performing service to its profession, the university, and community. As an academic unit within the College of Arts and Science, the primary department goal is the creation and transmission of knowledge through its two social science disciplines, sociology and criminology. To this end, the department's programs provide curricula that encourage critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and an understanding of the social science perspective. Through various and innovative instructional modes, including technologically enhanced and web-based courses, individualized instructions, interdisciplinary curricula, distance learning, internships, and practice, the department seeks to fulfill the university's commitment to providing a quality learning experience for its students. Excellence in scholarship and research is also viewed as essential to providing an effective and meaningful educational environment. Performing service in the region from the special perspective of sociology and criminology and providing students with the professional training necessary for success in applied settings is also a basic department responsibility. The Department of Sociology and Criminology seeks to increase knowledge of human society from a global perspective and to enhance understanding of the various multicultural segments of American society.

1.2 General Characteristics of the MA Program The Department of Sociology and Criminology began its MA in Criminology and Public Sociology in fall 2007. The program focuses on providing students with the knowledge and skills to contribute to the discipline in both an applied setting as well as an academic environment. As the first MA program in Public Sociology in the nation, our program contributes to UNCW’s

2 mission through our scholarly community engagement. Moreover, our program provides students ample opportunity to engage in research activity alongside faculty in the department, thus contributing to their overall creative inquiry and critical thinking. Through professional conference presentations, peer-reviewed publications, and grant-writing, our students are well- versed in research practice. Furthermore, UNCW is devoted to student development in terms of personal and professional aspirations. We are committed to providing students enrolled in our MA program with the cutting edge disciplinary skills and tools to take back into their communities, their employment, and their families as well-rounded, professionally trained social scientists.

Students are encouraged to develop observation and analytical skills. Graduates of our MA program have significant advantages for their career aspirations, whether they stay in this geographical region or move beyond southeastern North Carolina. Southeastern North Carolina is predominantly rural, with high rates of poverty, living wage concerns, job displacement and problems with affordable housing. The strengths of the faculty in the MA program focus on inequality (race, class, gender, and ability), community development and engagement and our courses reflect these areas of faculty expertise. Emphasis is placed on regional internships which address these longstanding social problems in the region and state. The region benefits from the application of students’ theoretical and methodological skills to that work.

At present, the department has 19 faculty members who are deemed “graduate faculty” by the Graduate School at UNCW. Three members of the graduate faculty have joined the department in the last three years, and have already taught at least one graduate seminar. In order to qualify as graduate faculty, faculty members must be research-active. Faculty members who are research active are required to teach three courses a semester, and this may include a graduate course.

The program began with Profs. Leslie Hossfeld and Mike Maume as co-coordinators, with each focusing on their respective tracks (Hossfeld—SOC and Maume—CRM), but also working together and with the faculty to create and maintain an integrated and high-quality program. In 2012, Prof. Christina Lanier (CRM) assumed the reins of the program as sole coordinator. Having established a 3-year term for this position, she will step down this spring. Prof. Daniel Buffington (SOC) will assume the duties of graduate coordinator in fall 2015.

Several minor curricular changes have been made over the last seven years; however, in 2014 the department agreed to rename the program to a Master of Arts in Sociology and Criminology. The purpose of the name change was to broaden our pool of applicants to those interested in a general sociology degree. The name change better reflects the work that is done in the department to include the area of general sociology, along with public sociology and criminology. In addition, the name of the program parallels the name of the department.

2. FINDINGS OF PREVIOUS REVIEWS The program has not undergone a program review. All findings reported in this study used the original Planning Document (see Appendix A) as a baseline for evaluation. As discussed elsewhere, efforts to revise the program since its inception have included changes to the core curriculum of the program, including changing the central focus of the sociology track

3 from public sociology to general sociology (with public sociology still playing a major role in the program). Nevertheless, the main objectives of the program—as described in the previous section—have remained unchanged.

The program has received 151 degree-seeking applications, averaging 22 applications per year.1 Out of these, 108 were accepted, and 82 individuals actually enrolled in the program. Projections from the Planning Document for the first four years of the program are indicated in the chart below, with subsequent years maintaining the fourth-year projection of 25 full-time students. The darker line shows the actual full-time enrollment in the program. Although the initial enrollment in the program was lower than projected, by the program's 5th and 6th years the enrollment was at or slightly higher than 25 students. The drop in enrollment in the last few years has been curious and unexpected; however, the program faculty with support from the Graduate School has taken a number of initiatives—described elsewhere in this report—to boost enrollment. Nationwide, the median size of MA programs in sociology is 20 students.2

3. GENERAL PROGRAM CHARACTERISTICS

3.1 Educational Objectives The general objective of the program is to train students to apply research skills and substantive knowledge in criminology and sociology to address social issues and social problems in practical ways. These skills sets are useful in a variety of public and private settings in understanding the root causes and consequences of social issues and social problems and the effectiveness of policies and strategies to deal with them. While the program is designed

1 The program has a non-degree-seeking option for applicants, and receives two or three such applications per year. Several students admitted in the fall semester began as non-degree students in the prior spring or fall semester.

2 Spalter-Roth, R. & Van Vooren, N. (2011). Are Master’s Programs Closing? What Makes for Success in Staying Open? Washington, DC: American Sociological Association. 4 primarily to equip masters level graduates with employable skills to apply in these areas, it can also serve as a gateway to Ph.D. programs in sociology, criminology, and other related areas.

Specifically, the educational objectives of the program are to:

 prepare students for professional and/or academic careers in Sociology, Criminal Justice and Criminology  strengthen students’ analytical, research and writing skills  provide extended training in theory and methods  strengthen students’ ability to apply theory and methods to social issues, problems and policies  provide students opportunities to work with community organizations and leaders in internship settings, gaining hands-on knowledge and application of social science research methods and practice

The educational objectives complement the goals of UNCW as a whole, the College of Arts and Sciences, and the Department of Sociology and Criminology.3 These objectives support UNCW’s primary mission of “learning through the integration of teaching and mentoring with research and service” (UNCW Mission Statement). The applied focus of the program, the emphasis on practical skills and knowledge, and the focus on community-based research all enhance UNCW’s overall mission, especially creating a powerful learning experience for our students (UNCW Goal I) and strengthening the university’s regional engagement and outreach activities (UNCW Goal V). The objectives of the program also enhance the strategic objectives of the College of Arts and Sciences, especially to “sustain, promote, and increase high-impact applied learning experiences (Goal I, Objective 3), “cultivate faculty and student scholarship” (Goal II), and to “support the college’s engaged scholarship and community service initiatives that address quality of life concerns in the region” (Goal IV, Objective 2). These objectives further extend and complement the goals of the Department of Sociology and Criminology. The substance of the graduate program is an extension of the department’s undergraduate programs in sociology and criminology and the strengths and expertise of its faculty. The undergraduate program in the department offers concentrations in both general areas of study in criminology and sociology but also options for more applied concentrations in criminal justice and public sociology.

The department itself is interdisciplinary as reflected in its name, its degree programs, and faculty areas of expertise. Criminology historically emerged as a specialty area within sociology but has more recently developed a separate professional identity but with still close ties to sociology. About half of the current faculty in the Department of Sociology and Criminology are criminologists focusing specifically on crime and the criminal justice system and about half are sociologists focusing on other aspects of the social world. Although the primary disciplinary focus is sociology and criminology, the research interests of the faculty as

5 well as graduate students in the program span other related areas as well including public administration, education, economics, social work, anthropology, and psychology.

3.2 Degree Requirements

A. General Requirements for the MA in Sociology and Criminology

The program requires a minimum of 34 semester hours of graduate study, 27 of which must be in Sociology or Criminology. Only 6 hours of graduate coursework outside the department will count towards graduate degree credit requirements.

1. Core Courses (16 hours)

Six courses (16 hours) are required for all students: CRM/SOC 500 Social Research Methods (3) CRM/SOC 502 Evaluation, Methods and Policy (3) CRM/SOC 503 Sociological Theory (3) CRM/SOC 504 Data Analysis (3) CRM/SOC 505 Proseminar (1) CRM/SOC 561 Seminar in Criminology (required for criminology concentration) (3) OR SOC 508 Public Sociology Seminar (required for sociology concentration) (3) 5

2. Concentration Areas (12 hours)

Four courses must be completed in one concentration area. The courses listed below each concentration are typical offerings (for a complete list of courses see the Graduate Catalogue or program website).

Students who indicate a desire to take electives offered by other departments or universities are required to consult with their advisor and the Graduate Coordinator when planning their program of study.

3. Thesis/Internship (6 hours)

Students may elect to complete an internship CRM/SOC 598 (6 hours) or a thesis CRM/SOC 599 (6 hours). Each student must successfully orally defend an internship or thesis proposal prior to registering for internship or thesis hours. The defense of either type of proposal should be scheduled near the completion of the second fall semester of full-time course work.

B. Thesis Option

A thesis requires an extensive literature survey on existing works and has the potential to generate new knowledge or improve upon existing techniques. One of the primary goals of masters-level thesis work is to improve students’ proficiency in conducting social scientific research.

Students preparing a thesis must write a proposal and pass an oral defense in order to continue work on the thesis. Thesis committees consist of a faculty advisor and at least two other members of the graduate faculty. At least one of these faculty members must be a member of the Department of Sociology and Criminology. Students choosing this option must pass both the proposal and thesis defense to graduate from the MA program. Students must follow the guidelines from the Graduate School for Thesis formatting and deadlines: http://www.uncw.edu/grad_info/thesis_dissertation_information.htm.

C. Internship Option

The internship entails both workload and academic requirements. Students enrolling for internship credits are required to work 20 hours per week at an agency agreed upon by the student and internship coordinator. This option also requires an internship project, which consists of an applied research paper examining an issue at the student’s work place relevant to the course of study. Students employed on a professional basis may request to waive the workload, but not the academic requirement. Waiver requests consist of (1) a formal letter to the Program Coordinator describing the relevant experience and (2) a résumé. Waivers will only be considered if the student can demonstrate a minimum of five years of significant management or discipline-related professional experience. Students must register for the internship course in the semester in which the internship begins.

The internship project requires background analysis and involves an applied project that results in solving a specific social issue or problem. An internship project often addresses practical questions (such as how best to solve a real-world social problem). All projects require significant social scientific analysis based on the core coursework in the program. Students choosing this option must choose an internship advisor and a committee of at least two other members of the graduate faculty who will advise the student on both the internship proposal defense and internship project defense. At least one of these faculty members must be a member of the department. Students choosing this option must pass both the proposal and project defense to graduate from the MA program.

Each internship placement will be unique to the research interests of the student. The program does not have a list of placements to ‘slot students,’ rather students are encouraged to seek organizations that match their research agenda and interests, provide an intellectually challenging and rewarding learning experience, and build skills that may be translated to employment. Students are encouraged to begin seeking these placements as early as possible in their academic program at UNCW.

The final internship project paper reflects the unique internship experience of the student. This final project is a catalogued, electronic copy, much like the thesis option, that becomes part of the UNCW Library holdings as well as those of the Sociology and Criminology department office. Expectations for each internship project will reflect the particular research agenda of each student and will be guided by the student’s internship committee; however, basic requirements include:

7) Analysis. Drawing from theoretical and empirical evidence, the analysis should include practical solutions to the real-world social issue the student examines during the internship experience: typically recommendations for the organization, observations that may help the organization address the social issue being studied, policy recommendations based on analysis of data and/or analysis of work-experience and research.

While this is very similar to the thesis format, the final internship project differs in that it should be understood as applied research that seeks to address real-world social issues using a social scientific model. Students will need to demonstrate their understanding of the social science research method and the way in which their training as social scientists informs the real- world social issue of the organization in which they serve as intern.

D. Grading Policy

In accordance with Graduate School policy, a student must maintain a cumulative 3.0 Grade Point Average (GPA) or “B” average to remain eligible in the program. Students falling below a 3.0 GPA will be placed on academic probation, and will have three subsequent courses to bring the GPA up to at least 3.0. Three grades of C or one grade of F results in dismissal from the graduate program.

If approved by the departmental chairperson, an incomplete (I) grade may be given if the course instructor determines that exceptional circumstances warrant extending the time for the student to complete the course work. The instructor may set the maximum allowable period for completion of the course work, but in no case will the extension exceed one year. If the time allowed is to be less than one year, this information should be transmitted in writing to the student, along with a copy for the Graduate School. If, within 12 months, a change of grade has not been submitted by the instructor, the incomplete automatically becomes an F. Ensuring that incomplete grades are converted in a timely manner is the responsibility of the student. The basis for course grading is determined by the instructor. Most courses will have a participation requirement, so it is essential for students to understand that class attendance is vital for a successful experience. Although each faculty member has the discretion to determine his or her specific attendance policies, it is expected that graduate students will attend all classes unless they have professional obligations and have discussed their absence in advance with the faculty member. Frequent unexcused absences may result in a failing grade and loss of eligibility until the student can demonstrate to the faculty that he or she is in a position both professionally and personally to attend class on a regular basis.

Students wishing to appeal their final grade in a course are required to follow the procedures outlined in the UNCW Graduate Catalogue.

E. Course of Study

Students are only admitted in the fall semester. Students have two basic decisions regarding their course of study: 1) how quickly they will progress through the program and 2) which concentration they will pursue.

1. Pace of Study

A full-time track assumes nine (9) or more hours per semester, with summers devoted to elective coursework, thesis/project research, or “recuperation.” This pace will allow the student to earn the MA in two years (assuming prerequisites are completed in advance). Students currently working full-time are strongly discouraged from taking a full-time course load. Graduate assistants, fellows, and others working no more than 20 hours per week are candidates for full-time status. Students awarded graduate assistantships are required to maintain full-time status throughout their candidacy. Students desiring to take more than 9 hours are required to consult with their advisors or the Graduate Coordinator. Full-time status is defined as one of the following:

a. Enrollment in at least 9 hours of coursework b. Enrollment in at least 1 hour of thesis credit (CRM 599 or SOC 599) c. Enrollment in at least 1 hour of internship credit (CRM 598 or SOC 598) d. Enrollment in GRC 600 (graduation continuation credit)

A part-time track assumes six (6) hours per semester. This pace will allow the student to earn the MA degree in three years (assuming prerequisites are taken in advance). This track is recommended for students working full-time.

2. Concentration Area

MA students are currently able to concentrate in either criminology or public sociology. Students must select a concentration area after their first 9 hours of coursework. Sociology students are encouraged to focus on public sociology, a particular strength of the program.

3. Qualifying Assessment

Upon completion of their first 9 credit hours in the program, students meet with the graduate coordinator and two or three other graduate faculty members to discuss their performance in the program, and discuss a plan for completing their degree in either the sociology or criminology track (students choose their concentration area at this time). All parties sign off on this plan, and the graduate coordinator takes notes at this meeting that remain in the student's file.

F. Graduate Assistantships/Fellowships

Subject to funding, the program may be in a position to award a number of graduate assistantships or fellowships at the beginning of each academic year. The exact terms of these opportunities will vary depending on the source of the funds, but typically offer a stipend and/or tuition waiver in return for 20 hours per week of research or professional support for the sponsor. Half-time assistantships requiring 10 hours per week of work may also be awarded. Awards may be for one or more academic years, depending on available funding and/or student performance. A graduate assistant is paid by state funds and normally works for faculty in the Sociology and

Criminology department. A fellow may be paid by a research grant or a local agency sponsor, in which case the student would work for the sponsor.

Graduate assistantships or fellowships are awarded on a competitive basis, with final selections made by faculty and/or the sponsoring agency. Criteria include academic performance, recommendations, and special skills that may be required for a particular opportunity.

G. Degree Time Limits

A graduate student has five calendar years to complete his or her degree program. The period begins with the student’s first term of work after formal admission to a degree-granting program. Work completed as a non-degree student does not initiate the five-year period for completing a degree program. Both full-time and part-time students are required to follow the five-year time limit.

Courses taken more than five calendar years prior to the admission of a student into a degree program at UNCW normally are not accepted for credit toward fulfilling the requirements of the student’s degree program. In some cases, however, with approval of the student’s advisory committee and department chair, a student may petition the Graduate School to accept for credit work that is more than five years old.

When extenuating circumstances warrant, an extension of the time limit for completing a graduate program may be granted to a student upon his or her petition to the Graduate School. Such petitions must include an explanation and the endorsement of the student’s advisory committee and academic unit’s chair or dean.

H. Ethical Conduct

The University of North Carolina Wilmington is a community of high academic standards where academic integrity is valued. UNCW students are committed to honesty and truthfulness in academic inquiry and in the pursuit of knowledge. This commitment begins when new students matriculate at UNCW, continues as they create work of the highest quality while part of the university community, and endures as a core value throughout their lives. Graduate students in the program are expected to abide by the ethical standards of conduct prescribed by American Sociological Association (www.asanet.org/about/ethics.cfm)

3.3 Discussion

The degree requirements for the MA in sociology and criminology reflect the philosophy of the program that enables graduates to use acquired skills and knowledge in applied settings. The core requirements emphasize applied research skills. In addition to completing a methods course and a data analysis course typical of most general MA programs in sociology and criminology, students are also required to complete CRM/SOC 502 (Evaluation, Methods, and Policy) designed specifically to teach skills such as grant writing and program evaluation most in demand in applied setting and CRM/SOC 505, a one-credit pro-seminar focused on

11 professionalization and professional issues. Students also complete a theory course focused on analytical critical thinking skills and an applied seminar in social stratification or criminology.

One of the strengths of this program is the diverse theoretical, methodological, and substantive interests of the graduate faculty. Within sociology, specific strengths include public sociology, the study of rural and urban poverty, race-gender class inequalities and stratification, social structure and organizational power, globalization, and culture and media. Within criminology, there are specializations in collective and interpersonal violence, substance abuse, victimology, and social/restorative justice.

With this background, graduates of the program will be able to tackle professional tasks that directly or indirectly involve human relationships. We expect our graduates to be able to move on to careers as evaluators, researchers, planners, managers, advisors, program directors, and policy makers. The program also provides a strong foundation for those who seek to pursue a Ph.D. in traditional criminology and sociology programs.

3.4 Success of Graduates

Successful graduate students must pass the thesis requirement (written and oral components) or the internship thesis requirement (written and oral components) in their final semester.6

There have been 45 graduates of the program since its inception. Almost all are either gainfully employed in relevant professional positions or enrolled in a PhD program in sociology or criminology.7 Below are some of the organizations employing program alumni and PhD institutions where graduates of the program have enrolled.

6 In addition, as part of the SACSCOC accreditation requirements for program assessment, the oral and written components of theses are assessed by thesis committee members and an outside member of the graduate faculty, using an assessment rubric approved by the department. Appendix B provides the rubric and assessment results.

7 Some of this information was obtained from direct correspondence with alumni over the past several years; however, the program also maintains a LinkedIn page for alumni, current students and faculty (see: tinyurl.com/owc3mvq). 12

4. CERTIFICATION AND OTHER PROGRAMS

The Program falls under UNC Wilmington’s accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (uncw.edu/planning/sacs.html). The Program is also a Professional Science Master’s degree, and participates in the University of North Carolina System‐wide Professional Science Master’s Programs. There is no specialized accreditation for either criminology or sociology degree programs.

Although there is no formal interdisciplinary program, students are encouraged to take and have taken courses in the Masters of Public Administration and Conflict and Management Resolution certificate programs offered by the Department of Public and International Affairs. In addition, every fall a faculty member from the program offers a 1-hour graduate seminar on college teacher preparation (SOC 509: Teaching in Higher Education) that is open to all second- year students, as well as graduate students enrolled in any program at UNCW.

5. FACILITIES

The program is housed in the Department of Sociology and Criminology, which is currently located in Bear Hall on the 1st and 2nd floors. Prior to January 2014 the program and department were housed in the Social and Behavioral Sciences Building (SBS).

Graduate Student Office Room 201D in Bear Hall is designated as the graduate student office for all students enrolled in the program. Students are granted UNCW One Card access to the locked office upon initial registration. The primary purpose of this area is as a study area and computer workspace. Teaching assistants doing course-related work also use this space for meeting with students. There are twelve (12) computers and one (1) laser printer in this room that are used for work related to the graduate program, and are available for use by graduate students and faculty only. Most graduate seminars are held in the evening in the department's designated meeting room located in Bear 281, but in the fall this single is not adequate to meet the needs of the program. A second seminar room in Bear Hall would help to meet this demand. The required Data Analysis course (Spring) is currently taught in a computer classroom in Bear Hall

Classrooms The program offers 6 seminars in the fall semester, and 4 in the spring. Most graduate seminars are held in the evening in the department's designated meeting room located in Bear 281, but in the fall this single is not adequate to meet the needs of the program. A second seminar room in Bear Hall would help to meet this demand. The required Data Analysis course (Spring) is currently taught in a computer classroom in Bear Hall.

7. GRADUATE STUDENT BODY

7.1 Current Students

Data were provided from the Graduate School regarding standardized test scores, demographics and other quantitative data pertaining to applicants for the program. Below is a summary of the data for all applicants who were accepted into the program. Please note that not all accepted students entered the program.

Applicants for the program are required to complete the General Record Exam (GRE). The two boxplots below present the distribution of scores the verbal and quantitative portions of the GRE for all students admitted between fall 2007 and fall 2014. The boxplots represent the range of scores with the dark line within the box representing the median score. With the exception of a few outliers, the average GRE verbal scores have not fluctuated much over the course of the program. A similar trend is identified with regard to the GRE quantitative scores. GRE scores prior to 2011 have been converted to match the scoring system.

The table below presents the race/ethnicity make-up of students accepted into the program. The majority of students reported White as their race (91.2%) with very few reporting African American, Asian or Hispanic as their race/ethnicity.

Admission Criteria

Applicants are required to submit the following to the Graduate School:  An application for graduate admission.

 Official transcripts of all college work (undergraduate and graduate).

 Official scores on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).

 Three recommendations by individuals in professionally relevant fields; at least two must be from academics.

 A writing sample in the form of an essay explaining how the MA in Sociology and Criminology may assist the candidate in meeting her or his personal goals.

 Students must have a 3.0 overall undergraduate GPA.

Recruitment

Recruitment efforts for the program are on-going. First, the program was renamed to a MA in Sociology and Criminology. The purpose of the name change was to broaden our pool of applicants to those interested in a general sociology degree vs. a public sociology degree. In addition, the name will parallel the name of the department. Lastly, this change will better reflect the work that is done in the department to include the area of general sociology along with public sociology and criminology. In addition we have completed the following with regard to recruitment:  The graduate coordinator, in conjunction with University Relations, has created a new marketing plan that includes new print material as well as a new website for the program.  Graduate coordinator and/or program representatives have attended multiple graduate school fairs.  Graduate coordinator has participated in guest talks, both at UNCW and regionally, about the program.  Emails were sent to over 300 contacts as regional institutions with information about the program.  Emails were sent to students who registered for the GRE and indicated an interest in sociology, criminology and/or related fields.  Direct mailings as well as emails were sent to all McNair Fellows with an interest in sociology, criminology and/or related fields.  Print ads have been published in national and regional conference programs.  Recruitment activities at the Southern Sociological Society meeting, North Carolina Sociological Association, North Carolina Criminology Association, and American Sociological Association, to name a few. Orientation and Advising

Each fall the graduate coordinator conducts a department specific orientation for all incoming graduate students. This orientation provides an overview of the expectations and requirements for the program as well as an opportunity for new students to become acquainted. In addition, the graduate coordinator holds a separate orientation for incoming teaching assistants to outline the roles and responsibilities of this position.

Graduate student advising is conducted by the graduate coordinator until the student selects a thesis/internship chair. At that time, the advising responsibilities shift to the student’s chair. In addition, each student must complete a qualifying assessment after the completion of 9 hours in the program. The assessment provides students feedback on their progress in the program and allows students to ask questions and provide comment about their experience thus far. The assessment is also a time when students select their track for a thesis or internship and choose their area of concentration, sociology or criminology.

Student Support

Twelve teaching assistantships are available for students each year on a competitive basis. With very few exceptions, students who are initially funded and who remain in the program receive funding for two years. In addition, the department awards out-of-state tuition remissions, a New Scholar Award and allocates Tuition Scholarship funds to all students receiving assistantships.

Graduate students can apply for travel support from the UNCW Graduate School and the Graduate Student Association if they meet the qualifying criteria. Unfortunately, the Sociology and Criminology Department does not have funds available to fund graduate student travel. The program offers 6 seminars in the fall semester, and 4 in the spring. Alpha Kappa Delta, sociology's honor society, has also provided support for graduate students presenting papers at conferences.

7.2 Student Performance Measures

In recent years, we have had a number of graduate students participate and present at local, regional and national conferences. Since 2011, we have had an average of 8-10 students presenting their research each year. The majority of our graduates are currently employed in an area related to their degree. In addition, a few of our students have received awards from UNCW and external organizations such as the Southern Sociological Society.

7.3 Role of Teaching Assistants

Teaching assistants (TA) in our department are required to work 20 hours a week for one or more professors (e.g., a student could work 10 hours a week for two different professors). TAs may be assigned duties related to teaching or research. For example, many TAs assist faculty with such tasks as grading exams and papers, recording attendance, and holding exam study sessions. Others may be engaged in research activities such as literature reviews and data collection and analysis. We have also had students funded through external grants. TAs are evaluated each semester by the faculty to whom they are assigned. Evaluations are forwarded to the program coordinator for her review.

8. AFFIRMATIVE ACTION

The Department of Sociology and Criminology follows the University's affirmative action policy (appended below) when recruiting and retaining faculty, staff, and students. For instance, when we recruit for new faculty positions, all members of the search committee are required to send the position announcement to five colleagues or outlets where minority candidates may be particularly encouraged to apply. As an example, during the 2014-2015 academic year, our search committee sent the position announcement to the following groups to ensure a diverse pool of candidates:

Sociologists for Women in Society Association of Black Sociologists

Mid-South Sociological Association Southern Sociological Society North Central Sociological Association Midwestern Sociological Society Eastern Sociological Society North Carolina Sociological Association American Society of Criminology, Division on Women and Crime listserve American Society of Criminology, Division on People of Color and Crime listserve American Society of Criminology, annual Employment Exchange North Carolina Criminal Justice Association

As noted in the previous section, our recruitment efforts in the graduate program include personalized mailings to McNair Scholars, and information regarding the program has been sent to sociology and criminology/criminal justice programs at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) in North Carolina and nearby states. Program faculty members have also engaged HBCU faculty and students at graduate school recruitment events (e.g., Fayetteville State University's graduate and professional school fair), and will continue to do so.

UNCW’s affirmative action policy is as follows:

John Rice Distinguished Teaching Professorship. College of Arts and Sciences, UNCW 2008-2010. (Three-year award). f. Community scholarship related to program goals

Leslie Hossfeld is the Co-Founder and Executive Director of the Southeastern North Carolina Food System Program - Feast Down East (FDE, www.feastdowneast.org). Through this work, she collaborates with faculty and students at universities throughout the state to ensure the expansion and success of regional food systems research. She has supervised interns, graduate students and worked with faculty from UNC Wilmington, UNC-Chapel Hill (Gillings School of Public Health, School of Government), Duke Nicolas School of the Environment, UNC-Pembroke, North Carolina State University, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical University (A&T), Institute for Emerging Issues, and Fayetteville State University on food systems research. FDE has over 100 partners across the state including North Carolina Cooperative Extension, North Carolina Conservation Fund Resourceful Communities, the Center for Environmental Farming Systems (CEFS), Carolina Farm Stewardship Association, Rural Advancement Fund International (RAFI), The North Carolina Rural Center and BRAC-Regional Task Force to name a few (see www.feastdowneast.org partners page for a full list). FDE represents a fully-integrated community, economic development, scholarly engagement program that exemplifies the type of outreach embodied in the vision and the mission of the entire University of North Carolina system.

Dr. Hossfeld is also the Co-Founder and Faculty Director of the Wilmington Housing Authority (WHA) – UNCW Community Partnership: WHA-UNCW Community Campus at Hillcrest. One of her primary goals when creating the Public Sociology program at UNCW was to find an outlet for our undergraduate and graduate students to conduct engaged scholarship working directly with the community. In partnership with the Wilmington Housing Authority she have helped bring together multiple disciplines across campus to focus on outreach and collaborative research initiatives between UNCW and WHA. In 2006 she helped to create a community campus based at Hillcrest Public Housing site; currently over ten UNCW departments along with over 15 community partners provide research and programmatic activities to public housing residents in New Hanover County. Since the fall of 2008 the UNCW Public Sociology Program has been based at the Hillcrest Community Campus; other disciplines from across campus participate in the satellite campus offering applied learning experiences and collaborative community-based research for low income residents. This vision and community outreach represents many of the key issues identified in the UNC Tomorrow initiative. Public Sociology students’ research is presented to Wilmington City Council each year to inform City Council of critical issues affecting low-income residents in Wilmington. Their research has been published in peer-reviewed journal articles as well as numerous local newspaper and magazine articles.

Since August of 2008, John Rice has been the principal investigator for the Hillcrest Reading Program [HRP]. HRP is an after-school tutoring program for at-risk kids that uses the most empirically-validated method of teaching children to read. The project, over the past two years, has involved some 140 both undergraduate and graduate students in tutoring; it also provides students with hands-on experience and participation in experimental research design. This work, which is an ongoing project, will produce several peer-reviewed articles in the near future, and will continue to do so in the coming years.

10. STRENGTHS, NEEDS AND CHALLENGES

Strengths of the program

 The combined program across the disciplines of sociology and criminology is unique. Our program is the only dual-concentration program in sociology and criminology in North Carolina. Students take several core courses together, as well as some electives.

 Our program is one of a handful in the country with a concentration in public sociology. All public sociology students are expected to work with local agencies in their coursework, and all students in the program gain experience partnering with agencies on needs assessments and program evaluations. Overall, the program focuses on community-based application and scholarly engagement, and has developed a solid track record in the region over the last several years.

 Students develop analytical skills that will serve them in both academic and applied settings. As noted above, students have gone on to be successful in PhD programs and in organizations seeking such skills. With regard to the latter, for example, the program has an ongoing relationship with RTI International, one of the largest research firms in the world. Each fall, a representative from RTI's Survey Research Division meets with graduate students in the professionalization seminar.

 The internship option is attractive to students in the public sociology concentration, as well as criminology students not planning to enroll in a PhD program. A number of internship placements resulted in employment offers upon graduation, or soon afterwards.

 The program is supported by the department faculty. At present, the department has 19 faculty members who are deemed “graduate faculty” by the Graduate School at UNCW. All recent faculty hires have been asked to address their willingness to teach in the program. Three members of the graduate faculty have joined the department in the last

three years, and have already taught at least one graduate seminar.

 The strengths of the faculty in the MA program focus on inequality (race, class, gender, and ability), community development and engagement, and our courses reflect these areas of faculty expertise.

 The faculty and students work closely together, and collaborate on funded projects, technical reports, presentations, and publications. Students on assistantship receive financial support for their thesis work (through tuition scholarships), and all students are eligible for funds from the Graduate School to support travel to conferences. A few years ago, the graduate students formed a departmental Graduate Student Association in order to apply for additional travel funds from the university GSA. In addition, as noted above, Alpha Kappa Delta offers travel assistance to graduate students. The department has agreed to fund one Alpha Kappa Delta and one Alpha Phi Sigma membership for graduate students each year.

Immediate challenges and long-range plans

 Recruiting: Although the department engages in an array of recruiting activities, the recent trends in enrollment indicate the need to expand on recruitment, and to seek institutional support in this effort. In January 2015 the department hosted an event for all high-GPA (3.2 and above) junior and senior majors in sociology and criminology at UNCW to inform them on the program and how to apply. The program expects to continue this event annually. There are also long-range plans to initiate an "open house" for the program to appeal to applicants from the region, similar to the one held each year by the MPA program. On a related note, by strengthening ties to other programs such as the MPA, as well as Conflict and Management Resolution, Women's Studies, Gerontology, Social Work, and Geography/GIS, the program has the potential to increase enrollment in its graduate seminars, if not recruit students interested in, for example, extending a Women's Studies graduate certificate to an MA in Sociology.

 Student support: A challenge related to recruitment is the level of financial support at the institutional level that is available to applicants to our program. Given a stipend that is several thousands of dollars lower than similar programs in North Carolina and nearby states, we have been unable to enroll some very strong applicants who receive more attractive offers from other schools. An increase in assistantship stipends and in the number of out-of-state tuition waivers would help alleviate this problem.

 Facilities: As described in Section 5, graduate students have access to several computers and a printer in a single office space in Bear Hall; however, the computers are several years old, and will also need to be replaced with newer equipment in the near future.

With the move from SBS to Bear Hall, the graduate student office space was decreased by 240 square feet, and the current office size is inadequate given the number of students in the program. In general, the department experienced a 24% reduction in workspace with the relocation to Bear Hall. The program should seek more workspace once the Department of Mathematics and Statistics moves out of Bear Hall (to the newly renovated SBS building) in fall 2015.

Personnel needs  The department does not anticipate requesting new faculty lines in support of the MA program. However, two full-time faculty members have recently gone on phased retirement, one more will be going on phased retirement in the fall, and we expect at least one or two more retirements of graduate faculty in the next several years. In order to sustain the quality of both undergraduate and graduate programs, we project the need for replacement lines for each of these retirements.

3 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

Executive Summary

UNCW requests authorization to establish a new graduate degree program in Criminology and Public Sociology. Increasingly, non-academic employers (chiefly policy makers, managers, planners and executives with responsibilities for a large variety of social, service, commercial, public and private agencies, programs and businesses) are becoming aware of the need for social science skills and for specific reliable information that they can use to assess policy, plan, pre- test, monitor and evaluate their efforts. Since many of the issues they confront are social in origin, current status or consequence, it is clear to them that in order to respond appropriately, they require highly relevant and necessary information, knowledge and social science skills that can contribute to making and carrying out effective decisions.

Recent developments in the social sciences, especially along methodological lines, have led to the emergence of a body of knowledge and skills bearing on decision-making and implementation. The theoretical and methodological developments in the social sciences can be made available to fill the acute need for professional skills that apply information to specific problems. In recent years the Sociology and Criminal Justice department has been approached by a variety of organizations with requests for competent MA professionals who can fill positions in applied social science and criminal justice areas, in the management of research, and in research related executive positions. In addition, master’s-level enrollments and degrees in the social sciences nationally have increased markedly over the past ten years. Likewise, the desire for skills-based courses that develop students for careers as master’s-level sociologists is increasing nationally. The department responds to this need by providing an MA program to educate graduate students who will work as professionals in non-academic applied settings as researchers, counselors, planners, managers, team members, volunteers, program directors, board members, and policy makers in public and private agencies, in marketing, media and not-for-profit management, that have use for the social science components of knowledge, information and skills.

One of the main objectives of the MA program will be to provide students with professional training to seek employment in federal, state, and local governmental agencies and in private- sector organizations, rather than seeking employment in strictly academic settings. The program will provide students training in both theory and methods as well as provide opportunities for them to apply both theory and methods in a variety of settings that deal with particular substantive areas. These areas will reflect the variety and depth of the department’s faculty interests including family, demography, minority studies, drugs, crime mapping, rural services, social policy, mental health, education, criminology, legal studies, poverty and criminal justice policy.

The program requires the completion of 33 credit hours of graduate level course work and is designed to be completed in four semesters of full-time study. Required courses: 15 credit hours of methods, data analysis, theory; Elective courses: 12 credit hours; Thesis or internship: 6 credit hours. UNCW proposes to offer this program beginning in Fall 2007.

I. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAM

A. Describe the proposed degree program (i.e., its nature, scope, and intended audience).

The proposed MA in Criminology and Public Sociology encompasses rigorous analyses of the values, assumptions, and social structures within national and global societies. The MA in Criminology and Public Sociology at UNCW assists and advises potential students to gain significant insights into these social processes and structures in their desired professions.

The purpose of the masters program is to train students to use theoretical and methodological tools that will allow them to acquire and apply specific information to particular problems or to improve the quality of life. Students will have the opportunity to challenge themselves and others in unique and realistic ways.

MA students will be able to concentrate in either criminology or public sociology. In either case, graduates of the program will be able to tackle professional tasks that directly or indirectly involve human relationships. We expect our graduates to move on to careers as evaluators, researchers, counselors, volunteers, planners, managers, advisors, program directors, and policy makers. The program will also provide a strong foundation for those who seek to pursue the Ph.D. in traditional criminology and sociology programs.

One of the strengths of the new program is the diverse theoretical, methodological, and substantive interests of the graduate faculty. For example, within public sociology, specific strengths include the study of rural and urban poverty, race-gender class inequalities and stratification, social structure and organizational power, globalization, and culture and media. Theoretical-methodological perspectives represented include both quantitative and qualitative, as well as critical, feminist, and conflict theories. Within criminology, specific strengths include not only traditional criminal justice studies, but theoretical criminology including critical criminological theory, and social justice including restorative justice. Students will work with the faculty to develop an individualized program of study. The program requires the completion of 33 credit hours of graduate level course work and is designed to be completed in four semester of full-time study. Required courses: 15 credit hours of methods, data analysis, theory; Elective courses: 12 credit hours; Thesis or internship: 6 credit hours.

B. List the education objectives of the program.

The educational objectives of the master’s program are:  To prepare students for professional and/or academic careers in Sociology, Criminal Justice and Criminology  To strengthen students’ analytical, research and writing skills  To provide extended training in theory and methods  To strengthen students’ ability to apply theories and methods to social issues, problems and policies

6 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

 To provide students opportunities to work with community organizations and leaders in internship settings gaining hands-on knowledge and application of social science research methods and practice

C. Describe the relationship of the program to other programs currently offered at the proposing institution, including the common use of: (1) courses, (2) faculty, (3) facilities, and (4) other resources.

Some graduate courses will be cross-listed to encourage enrollment by advanced undergraduate Public Sociology and Criminal Justice students, especially those who may wish to complete this or some other graduate-level program. Students in other graduate programs such as the Masters of Social Work and Masters in Public Administration, may seek to take courses from the proposed MA program.

Faculty teaching in the proposed program will come from the undergraduate program in Sociology and Criminal Justice (College of Arts and Sciences). II. JUSTIFICATION FOR THE PROGRAM

A. Describe the proposed program as it relates to: 1. The institutional mission and strategic plan

The proposed MA in Criminology and Public Sociology will enhance UNCW’s mission, goals, and objectives. According to the strategic vision, “UNCW will promote and engage in high-quality scholarship and in master’s-focused graduate education.” Furthermore, UNCW is devoted to student development in terms of personal and professional aspirations. We are committed to providing students enrolled in our MA program with the cutting edge disciplinary skills and tools to take back into their communities, their employment, and their families as well-rounded, professionally trained social scientists. They will be encouraged to develop observation and analytical skills. Graduates of our MA program will have significant advantages for their career aspirations, whether they stay in this geographical region or move beyond southeastern North Carolina. UNCW values highly our commitment to regional engagement. This MA in Criminology and Public Sociology specifically requires graduate students to take on internships, and it is expected that most of them will be employed in the New Hanover metropolitan area (New Hanover, Pender and Brunswick counties). Southeastern North Carolina is predominantly rural, with high rates of poverty, living wage concerns, job displacement and problems with affordable housing. The strengths of the faculty in the MA program focus on inequality (race, class, gender, ability), community development and engagement and our courses will reflect these areas of faculty expertise. Emphasis will be placed on regional internships which address these longstanding social problems in the region and state. The region will benefit from the application of students’ theoretical and methodological skills to that work. Thus, our program will directly enhance Goal V (“strengthen the university’s regional engagement and outreach activities”), and specifically relate to Objectives 2 (provide services to and collaborate with our P-16

7 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

educational partners in public schools, community colleges and other universities) and 8 (enhance the university’s ability to perform larger scale multi-disciplinary applied research programs that focus on issues important to southeastern North Carolina).

2. Student demand

The initial target market for this program will be undergraduate Sociology and Criminal Justice graduates and local professionals currently working in the criminal justice and social sciences fields. To date, more than 30 inquiries about the proposed program have been fielded by our department over the past six months, primarily through word-of-mouth networking. In 2004, the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice was awarded Council Of Graduate Schools (CGS) and Ford Foundation funding to develop and plan a professional master’s degree program in the social sciences. Using these funds, the department conducted a survey to assess the need for such a program and found that 77% of employers surveyed in the region indicated the need for professional master’s trained graduates; 92% of alumni surveyed believed the program was needed. We believe there is a strong demand for the proposed program and that the program will attract students from the region, as well as nationally.

3. Societal need (For graduate, first professional, and baccalaureate professional programs, cite manpower needs in North Carolina and elsewhere.)

Increasingly, non-academic employers (chiefly policy makers, managers, planners and executives with responsibilities for a large variety of social, service, commercial, public and private agencies, programs and businesses) are becoming aware of the need for social science skills and for specific reliable information that they can use to assess policy, plan, pre-test, monitor and evaluate their efforts. Since many of the issues they confront are social in origin, current status, or consequence, it is clear to them that in order to respond appropriately, they require highly relevant and necessary information, knowledge and social science skills that can contribute to making and carrying out effective decisions.

Recent developments in the social sciences, especially along methodological lines, have led to the emergence of a body of knowledge and skills bearing on decision-making and implementation. The theoretical and methodological developments in the social sciences can be made available to fill the acute need for professional skills that apply information to specific problems. In recent years the Sociology and Criminal Justice department has been approached by a variety of organizations with requests for competent MA professionals who can fill positions in applied social science and criminal justice areas, in the management of research, and in research related executive positions. In addition, master’s-level enrollments and degrees in the social sciences nationally have increased markedly over the past ten years. Likewise, the desire for skills-based courses that develop students for careers as master’s- level sociologists is increasing nationally. The department responds to this need by providing an MA program to educate graduate students who will work as professionals in non-academic applied settings as researchers, counselors, planners, managers, team members, volunteers, 8 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

program directors, board members, and policy makers in public and private agencies, in marketing, media and not-for-profit management, that have use for the social science components of knowledge, information and skills. Furthermore, in a recent research report produced by the American Sociological Association Research and Development Department (Spalter-Roth 2006), findings indicate that few students graduating from traditional graduate social science curricula felt they had the skills to work in non-academic careers such as those found in non-profits, consulting work, or government – a clear mismatch between the types of jobs available to MA-level graduates and the skills MA students receive in traditional sociological MA programs. We believe that the program we have created will address this mismatch between the traditional sociology and criminology curricula and the professional social science curricula which emphasizes applied experiences in professional settings, and social science skills development.

4. Impact on existing undergraduate and/or graduate academic programs of your institution. (e.g., Will the proposed program strengthen other programs? Will it stretch existing resources? How many of your programs at this level currently fail to meet Board of Governors’ productivity criteria? Is there a danger of proliferation of low-productivity degree programs at the institution?)

The mission statement of the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice is to:

 provide quality undergraduate liberal arts education for its students;  producing new knowledge through scholarship and research;  and perform service to its profession, the university, and community.

As an academic unit within the College of Arts and Science, the primary department goal is the creation and transmission of knowledge through its two social science disciplines, sociology and criminal justice. To this end, the department's programs provide curricula that encourage critical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and an understanding of the social science perspective. Through various and innovative instructional modes, including technologically enhanced and web-based courses, individualized instructions, interdisciplinary curricula, distance learning, internships, and practice, the department seeks to fulfill the university's commitment to providing a quality learning experience for its students. Excellence in scholarship and research is also viewed as essential to providing an effective and meaningful educational environment. Performing service to the region from the special perspective of sociology and criminal justice and providing students with the professional training necessary for success in applied settings is also a basic department responsibility. The department seeks to increase knowledge of human society from a global perspective and to enhance understanding of the various multicultural segments of American Society.

The Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice currently offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology and in Criminal Justice. Both programs offer internships and applied settings. The department offers a Public Sociology track that emphasizes community based participatory research. Public Sociology involves taking sociology beyond the boundaries of

9 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

the university: it is a sociology that “seeks to bring sociology to publics beyond the academy, promoting dialogue about issues that affect the fate of society” (Burawoy 2004). In the Public Sociology Program, students learn how to use sociology to inform real life social issues. The proposed professional master’s degree will expand on the undergraduate program focusing on internship placement in the community to apply social science skills in relevant professional settings. The 33 hour master’s program includes a six hour internship placement. While the proposed program will provide an opportunity for advanced education at the master’s level, it will also serve to strengthen both undergraduate programs in Criminal Justice and Sociology. Graduate teaching assistants will be utilized to provide instructional support for the undergraduate program. The MA program will attract more and better faculty to UNCW as well as additional resources which will be leveraged by undergraduate and graduate programs alike. In addition, two current faculty members serve on two separate national Task Forces for the American Sociological Association (ASA), the professional organization for Sociologists. Dr. Kim Cook, Chair of the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice, has just been appointed to a two-year term on the ASA Task Force on Sociology and Criminology programs. Dr. Leslie Hossfeld, Co-Director of the proposed MA in Criminology and Public Sociology, was appointed by the American Sociological Association (ASA) Council to Co-Chair the national ASA Taskforce on Institutionalizing Public Sociology. The expertise offered by these two faculty members in their respective areas will guide the MA program and bring national attention to the proposed MA program and the university.

Other departments that offer courses that may be taken by students in the proposed degree program, include the Masters of Public Administration program and the Masters of Social Work program that would overlap with the applied professional features of our proposed master’s program. Specifically, we seek to offer MSW course Social Policy and Service Organizations; and two MPA courses: Issues in Non-Profit Management and Resources Development in Non-Profit Organizations. This will strengthen our program by providing policy and non-profit organizational expertise that our students will use in their professional careers. These will not be unduly impacted by the program given they are all elective courses and not required.

There is little danger of the creation of low-productivity graduate programs at UNCW. In the 2001 biennial Review of Academic Degree Program Productivity, only the M.S./M.A. in Mathematics and the M.S. in Chemistry were identified as low-productivity programs. Both have increased enrollments and graduation rates and are no longer so classified. In the 2003 Review of Academic Degree Program Productivity, the M.Ed. in Middle Grades Education and the M.Ed. in Special Education, along with the M.A.T. degrees programs were classified as low-productivity. The M.Ed. degree program at UNCW has numerous specialty areas. The M.Ed. program, as a whole, is quite healthy and vigorous. Enrollment in subspecialties varies each year. The M.A.T. program was reconstituted and restarted only three years ago and it has reached high productivity levels in the short amount of time. We believe that the MA in Criminology and Public Sociology will be extremely attractive to prospective students and will immediately have high enrollments and will sustain high enrollments through subsequent years. 10 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

B. Discuss potential program duplication and program competitiveness

1. Identify similar programs offered elsewhere in North Carolina. Indicate the location and distance from UNCW. Include a) public and b) private institutions of higher education.

III. Program Requirements and Curriculum

A. Program Planning

1. List the names of institutions with similar offerings regarded as high quality programs by the developers of the proposed program.

There are no public or private institutions in North Carolina with either a Master of Arts in Public Sociology or an MA in Criminology. Indeed, only one other program in the country, American University http://www.american.edu/cas/sociology/maps/, offers an MA with a concentration in Public Sociology; the program was launched Fall 2006, thus it may be too soon to assess its quality. The MA in Sociology program at UNC Greensboro has a Criminology concentration, and appears to be a program of fine quality. Appalachian State University has an MS degree in Criminal Justice and Criminology, but is too recently approved to assess its quality. In addition, North Carolina State University’s masters and doctoral programs in sociology identifies crime, deviance, and social control as an area of emphasis. Outside of North Carolina, the following programs are similar to ours and are considered to be of high quality:  University of Missouri-St. Louis (www.umsl.edu/%7Eccj/html_files/masters.html)  University of Maryland (http://www.ccjs.umd.edu/Graduate/)  Northern Arizona University (http://www.nau.edu/~crimj-p/mscj.html)  University of Delaware (http://www.udel.edu/soc/gradpage.htm)  University of Florida (http://web.crim.ufl.edu/grad/ma.html)

The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation has also recognized this need and has provided funding to more than 30 institutions to develop interdisciplinary graduate programs (http://www.sciencemasters.com) for students interested in a wider variety of career options than provided by current graduate programs. UNCW has received Sloan Foundation funding for the planning and establishment the proposed program in Criminology and Public Sociology.

2. List other institutions visited or consulted in developing this proposal. Also list any consultants’ reports, committee findings, and simulations (cost, enrollment 14 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

shift, induced course load matrix, etc.) generated in planning the proposed program. The MA Program planning committee in Sociology & Criminal Justice consulted with colleagues at the following universities: UNC Greensboro, Northern Arizona University, American University, Old Dominion University, North Carolina State University, American Sociological Association and Eastern Michigan University. Committee members attended a workshop for graduate program directors at the meeting of the American Sociological Association in August 2006 and received valuable information on program planning from the workshop sessions. In addition, the committee collected invaluable qualitative and quantitative feedback from the program’s advisory board at a session held early in the planning process. A list of advisory board members may be found in Appendix A.

IV. FACULTY

A. List the names of persons on the faculty who will be directly involved in the proposed program. Provide complete information on each faculty member’s education, teaching experience, research experience, publications, and experience in directing student research, including the number of theses and dissertations directed for graduate programs. The official roster forms approved by SACS can be submitted rather than actual faculty vita.

Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice (for vitae see Appendix B)

1. Dr. Susan Bullers 2. Dr. Kimberly Cook 3. Dr. Leslie Hossfeld 4. Dr. Darrell Irwin 5. Dr. Sangmoon Kim 6. Dr. Donna King 7. Dr. Christina Lanier 8. Dr. Diane Levy 9. Dr. Michael Maume 10. Dr. Clyde McDaniel 11. Dr. Stephen McNamee 12. Dr. Robert Miller 13. Dr. John Rice 14. Dr. Lynn Snowden 15. Dr. Adam Watkins 16. Dr. Cecil Wills

B. Estimate the need for new faculty for the proposed program for the first four years. If the teaching responsibilities for the proposed program will be absorbed in part or in whole by the present faculty, explain how this will be done without weakening existing programs.

2007-2008: 0 new faculty 2008-2009: 2 new faculty (public sociology, criminology) 2009-2010: 1 new faculty (sociology of law) 2010-2011: 1 new faculty (criminology)

C. If acquisition of new faculty requires additional funds, please explain where and how these funds will be obtained.

New faculty positions will come from enrollment growth in the program and at UNCW. 22 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

D. Explain how the program will affect faculty activity including course load, public service and scholarly research.

The Department’s faculty workload policy is consistent with the College of Arts and Sciences and allows for faculty to gain workload credit for a variety of instructional methods. The workload will remain 9 hours of instruction for research-active faculty in the Department. To be a member of the graduate faculty, one must maintain research activity. Scholarly research productivity will be enhanced and increased as a result of this program since faculty will have the benefits of graduate assistants who will participate in faculty research projects and who may be employed from faculty research grants. The proposed program will also bolster existing undergraduate programs where students work with faculty on research projects, thus providing undergraduate students with role models from among the graduate students to mentor them.

V. LIBRARY

A. Provide a general statement as to the adequacy of present library holdings for the proposed program. There are 347 journal subscriptions in the combined areas of sociology, criminology and criminal justice; 87% of these journals have online, full-text access. The library subscribes to both Sociological Abstracts and Criminal Justice Abstracts, which provide access to journal articles, book reviews, dissertation and book abstracts, and technical reports in the disciplines of sociology and criminology. In addition, the library provides access to secondary databases in these fields (e.g., Applied Social Sciences Indexes and Abstracts, National Criminal Justice Reference Service Abstracts).

The Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice has seen its appropriation for purchasing library materials increased to $6,500 for the 2006-2007 AY. These funds may be used to purchase books, datasets, or audiovisual materials. The department has completely spent its appropriation every year for the last several years, such that the library boasts extensive holdings in the social sciences. The table below shows the extent of holdings in general sociology (Library of Congress Classification [LCC]: HM) and social pathology, which includes most of the books in the areas of criminology and criminal justice (LCC: HV). These figures are compared to corresponding holdings at two other state universities in the southeastern region: Fayetteville State University (FSU) and UNC Pembroke (UNCP). Although UNCP has no masters programs in sociology, criminology or criminal justice, FSU has a masters program in sociology and a new masters in criminal justice program. The table shows the count of catalogued materials in the general holdings in both general sociology and criminology & criminal justice. Of the 6,779 items totaled between sociology and criminology & criminal justice, 96% are books.

In addition to these formal holdings, the Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice maintains its own informal library of books, journals, pedagogical materials and videos.

B. State how the library will be improved to meet program requirements for the next five years. The explanation should discuss the need for books, periodicals, reference materials, primary source materials, etc. What additional library support must be added to areas supporting the proposed program?

Although no departments at UNCW have been authorized to increase journal subscriptions within their disciplines, new tenure-track faculty members have the ability to request one journal subscription (up to a cost of $500 per year per journal). There are three new tenure-track faculty in the Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice this year, and the department expects to hire four tenure-track faculty members for the 2007-2008 AY. We therefore have the potential to substantially increase the journal holdings in sociology and criminology by next year. In addition, the department has received a $2000 special project fund to purchase books to redress deficiencies in the areas of social research methods and analysis. The department will actively encourage faculty to apply for these special project funds as they identify deficiencies in holdings—particularly those most relevant to the MA program.

C. Discuss the use of other institutional libraries

All UNCW faculty and students have borrowing privileges at other North Carolina state universities. In addition, UNCW is a member of the Coastal Library Consortium, which includes Fayetteville State University (FSU) and UNC Pembroke (UNCP). Faculty and students may use the electronic catalog to locate and place holds on books and other circulating materials at FSU and UNCP, which are usually delivered to Randall Library’s circulation department within a few days. ILIAD, which is Randall Library’s interlibrary loan system, is an online request application that allows faculty and students to request books, theses and dissertations, and journal articles that are not available from UNCW. These materials are usually available within several days; many articles are received in an electronic format.

VI. FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT

A. Describe facilities available for the proposed program. The MA in Criminology and Public Sociology will be housed entirely in the Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice, which is located in the Social & Behavioral Sciences (SBS) building.

B. Describe the effect of this new program on existing facilities and indicate whether they will be adequate, both at the commencement of the program and during the next decade. All graduate faculty members in the department have offices in SBS, and the department has some shared office space that it will be able to set aside for graduate students. Given that most, if not all, classes will be planned for times that are not in the “prime time” block identified by the College of Arts & Sciences (i.e., late afternoons and evenings), classroom availability for the graduate program will be adequate. However, should departmental growth continue over the next decade at the current rate of growth, it is quite likely that both the department and the graduate program will need additional office and classroom space.

C. Discuss any information technology services needed and/or available.

Technology continues to play an increasingly important role in the lives of faculty, staff and students at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, and its importance was underscored by a vote of the Faculty Senate to “ensure that UNCW graduates are equipped with the technology related skills necessary to ensure success in their academic disciplines and related professional pursuits.” The Information Technology Systems Division at UNCW provides information technology services for over 10,900 students and 1,650 faculty and staff. The division conducts planning through a systematic process engaging faculty and students within various committees. The student, faculty and staff e-mail, calendar, and scheduling system is provided through the MS Exchange environment which also offers faculty and select staff access to on-campus services through its VPN system. The Technology Assistance Center (technology help desk) is staffed from 7:30 to 5:30 5 days a week and Collegis provides 24/7 support for online courses for both faculty and students. The Technology Support Center is a new facility that houses the Technology Assistance Center, student support area and a dedicated faculty support area with dedicated staff. The E-merging technology training arm of the Information Technology Systems Division focuses on integration of teaching and learning tools in the classroom and online. This includes support of PDA’s and classroom whiteboards. Coupled with this is a Skillport system of online skill development courses. Blackboard/WebCT is the campus course management system used for online course development. The UNCW campus wireless network brings nearly 90% coverage of the entire campus, while Sungard/SCT is the basis of the UNCW portal system along with enterprise system applications in the Banner suite of products. Full training and support is offered for these applications on an

25 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

ongoing basis. UNCW is moving to a datamart-type format in the near future with application systems that to allow flexibility in report development and data access. To date there have been 95 classrooms outfitted with complete audio visual media systems including LCD projectors, computer systems, network access, speakers and lighting controls all developed from a baseline model for ease of support and maintenance. These classrooms are supported by three dedicated staff and five students. These classrooms were specific designed by the Division of Academic Affairs for outfitting. Cable services run to the wall in nearly all classrooms, and satellite access is available as requested predominantly as downlink services. There are 12 computer labs across campus and two laptop (wireless) checkout locations to serve students on an ongoing basis. Randall Library has a computer lab that is designated for exclusive use by graduate students. UNCW has a preferred vendor program with Dell Computer, Inc. which offers students a preferred price for computer systems developed to utilize the collaborative environment the ITS division has implemented. The division has also developed several programs to serve faculty and staff with personal purchases at very competitive pricing structures.

D. Discuss sources of financial support for any new facilities and equipment.

VII. ADMINISTRATION

Describe how the proposed program will be administered giving the responsibilities of each department, division, school, or college. Explain any inter-disciplinary or inter- unit administrative plans. Include an organizational chart showing the “location” of the proposed program.

The MA Committee is a standing committee in the department of Sociology and Criminal Justice. It is composed of the Co-Directors of the MA program (one for Criminology and one for Public Sociology) and seven appointed Graduate Faculty from the department representing both Criminology and Public Sociology substantive areas. The MA Committee reports to the Chair of the department, who reports to the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences.

The primary duties of the Co-Directors of the MA program will be to implement policies derived by the MA Committee in accordance with guidelines provided by the Graduate School.

VIII. ACCREDITATION

Indicate the names of all accrediting agencies normally concerned with programs similar to the one proposed. Describe plans to request professional accreditation. It the proposed new degree program is at a more advanced level than those previously authorized or if it is in a new discipline division, was SACS notified of a potential “substantive change” during the planning process? If so, describe the response from SACS and the steps that have been taken to date with reference to the applicable procedure.

SACS - no substantial change

IX. SUPPORTING FIELDS

Are other subject-matter fields at the proposing institution necessary or valuable in support of the proposed program? Is there needed improvement or expansion of these fields? To what extent will such improvement or expansion be necessary for the proposed program?

Some elective courses are proposed to be supported by other departments including the Department of Social Work and Public Administration. Due to these courses being elective in nature, they should pose no undue demand on these supporting fields or on the Sociology and Criminal Justice department.

X. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Include any additional information deemed pertinent to the review of this new degree program proposal. N/A

XI. BUDGET Provide estimates (using the attached form) of the additional costs required to implement the program and identify the proposed sources of the additional required funds. Use SCH projections (section II.C.) to estimate new state appropriations through enrollment increase funds. Prepare a budget schedule for each of the first three years of the program, indicating the account number and name for all additional amounts required. Identify EPA and SPA positions immediately below the account listing. New SPA positions should be listed at the first step in the salary range using the SPA

28 of 128 Request to Establish a Master of Arts in Criminology and Public Sociology The University of North Carolina Wilmington

classification rates currently in effect. Identify any larger or specialized equipment and any unusual supplies requirements. For the purposes of the second and third year estimates, project faculty and SPA position rates and fringe benefits rates at first year levels. Include the continuation of previous year(s) costs in second and third year estimates. Additional state-appropriated funds for new programs may be limited. Except in exceptional circumstances, institutions should request such funds for no more than three years (e.g., for start-up equipment, new faculty positions, etc.), at which time enrollment increase funds should be adequate to support the new program. Therefore it will be assumed that requests (in the “New Allocations” columns of the following worksheet) are for one, two, or three years unless the institution indicates a continuing need and attaches a compelling justification. However, funds for new programs are more likely to be allocated for limited periods of time.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

1. Co-Founder and Executive Director Southeastern North Carolina Food System Program - Feast Down East www.feastdowneast.org. 2006-Present

In 2006, I co-founded the Southeastern North Carolina Food Systems Program (also known as Feast Down East) as an economic and community development initiative in response to the massive job loss in the region’s agricultural and manufacturing sectors and the growing poverty rate. We have developed into a partnership of public and private institutions and agencies in eleven counties including both rural and urban counties to maximize market opportunities and profits from the sale of local farm products for both local and regional markets. Feast Down East (FDE) has completed three years of research and local food assessments that identified seven major elements and needs in a regional food system in Southeastern NC. These are: (1) profitable private and public markets for local food sales; (2) comprehensive support for and engagement of limited resource farmers and measurable outcomes to becoming resourceful farmers; (3) the 3 Hossfeld processing and distribution of local foods for year-round sales and consumption; (4) a highly diverse and strong, public- private partnership; (5) food security and engagement of low and moderate income consumers in the 29 food deserts in the region; (6) the establishment of Food, Farm, and Family Councils (adapting the Food Policy Council model) that engage all stakeholders in the coordination of local food production, processing, distribution, sales, and consumption; and (7) significant public and private financial and nonfinancial support.

FDE focuses on poverty reduction, engagement, and empowerment of limited resource farmers (defined by the USDA as social disadvantaged farmers and in our region primarily African American and women farmers) and consumers who are the foundation and beneficiaries of the system’s development and programs. The major project goals of FDE are to: (1) expand the local and regional institutional buying and direct marketing of local farm products in rural and urban counties in Southeastern NC; (2) increase the local production, marketing, and profit of local farm products in rural and urban counties in Southeastern NC; (3) link rural farmers to rural and urban markets and consumers through new infrastructures created through FDE; (4) expand farm and food-related jobs through the expansion of businesses that produce, distribute, market, and sell farm products in Southeastern NC; (5) increase the opportunity and capacity of limited resource to meet the demand for local farm products in the expanded local and regional markets: and (6) keep a greater percentage of the food dollar within Southeastern NC and increase local and regional wealth through the multiplier effect of expanded markets, sales, and profits. Emerging markets in local food production provide opportunities for raising farm profitability. To date, FDE has been successful in securing buying relationships with restaurants, colleges and assisted living facilities, and more recently, retail markets.

FDE has been featured in multiple publications and media outlets, including the state action publication From Farm to Fork: a Guide to Building North Carolina’s Sustainable Local Food Economy noted as a leader in the Southeast in sustainable economic development. The FDE Program has developed into a national model of food systems development and implementation that is grounded in poverty reduction and alleviation among low-income agricultural producers and low-income consumers. FDE is one of the few USDA designated Food Hubs in the state and nation.

Through this work, I collaborate with faculty and students at universities throughout the state to ensure the expansion and success of regional food systems research. I have supervised interns, graduate students and worked with faculty from UNC-Chapel Hill (Gillings School of Public Health, School of Government), Duke Nicolas School of the Environment, UNC-Pembroke, North Carolina State University, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical University (A&T), Institute for Emerging Issues, and Fayetteville State University on food systems research. FDE has over 100 partners across the state including North Carolina Cooperative Extension, North Carolina Conservation Fund Resourceful Communities, the Center for Environmental Farming Systems (CEFS), Carolina Farm Stewardship Association, Rural Advancement Fund International (RAFI), The North Carolina Rural Center and BRAC-Regional Task Force to name a few (see www.feastdowneast.org partners page for a full list). FDE represents a fully-integrated community, economic development, scholarly engagement program that exemplifies the type of 4 Hossfeld outreach embodied in the vision and the mission of the entire University of North Carolina system. I have written and received grant funding (close to $2 million) for FDE from: USDA, Golden LEAF Foundation, Tobacco Trust Foundation, Z. Smith Reynolds, Blue Cross, Blue Shield NC Foundation, Southern Sustainable Agricultural Working Group (SSAWG), North Carolina Department of Agriculture, SARE Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education, Carolina Farm Stewardship Association, Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Program (ASAP), Rural Advancement Fund International, and I am currently seeking additional funding from Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust and the Kellogg and Ford Foundations.

2. Co-Founder - Jobs for the Future Project, Center for Community Action, Lumberton, NC The Jobs for the Future Collaborative developed as a public/private partnership based at the Center for Community Action, Lumberton, North Carolina, bringing together over 70 individual and organizational affiliate members that met monthly to address issues of job loss, sustainable development, and local, state, and federal policy advocacy in Robeson County, North Carolina. Robeson County lost over 10,000 jobs since 1993 with the implementation of NAFTA. We collected and examined both qualitative and quantitative data on the impact of job loss on the county and presented findings from this research, along with policy recommendations to the Congressional Rural Caucus in Washington DC on 30th March, 2004, co-sponsored by North Carolina Congressman Mike McIntyre. In addition we organized 150 community members including displaced workers, academics, public and private sector leaders, practitioners and community organizers and bused to Washington, DC to provide testimony on the impact of job loss on Robeson County. From this project we organized two National Conferences on Job Loss and Recovery in Rural America, co-sponsored by the American Sociological Association, the Society for the Study of Social Problems, the Rural Sociological Society, the Rural Policy Research Institute (RUPRI), Southern Rural Development Center, the Institute for Emerging Issues, and the North Carolina AFL-CIO. Over 400 people attended each conference, and displaced workers received training at various workshops on entrepreneurial development, displaced worker councils and trainings as worker advocates. We found that many community programs seek relief for the hardships of displacement, but seldom engage workers as leaders in new strategies for development, job creation and policy advocacy. The Jobs for the Future project emphasized worker training for sustainable development and participation in policy advocacy and research. Other phases of the Jobs for the Future Project include a $20 million public/private program for sustainable, small business development and capacity building; worker training in entrepreneurial skills and worker advocacy. I received an American Sociological Association Community Action Research Initiative (CARI) award for this research and served as lead researcher for the project. Our work on this project has unfolded and has shifted to a sustainable economic development regional initiative around food systems described above.

SCHOLARLY ENGAGEMENT – PUBLIC SOCIOLOGY PROJECTS

1. Wilmington Housing Authority (WHA) – UNCW Community Partnership WHA-UNCW Community Campus at Hillcrest - Co-Founder and Faculty Director One of my primary goals when creating the Public Sociology program at UNCW was to find an outlet for our undergraduate and graduate students to conduct engaged scholarship working directly with the community. In partnership with the Wilmington Housing Authority I have helped bring together multiple disciplines across campus to focus on outreach and collaborative research initiatives between UNCW and WHA. In 2006 we created a community campus based at Hillcrest Public Housing site and currently over ten UNCW departments along with over 15 community partners provide research and programmatic activities to public housing residents in New Hanover County. Since the fall of 2008 the UNCW Public Sociology Program has been based at the Hillcrest Community Campus; other disciplines from across campus participate in the satellite campus offering applied learning experiences and collaborative community-based research for low income residents. This vision and community outreach represents many of the key issues identified in the UNC Tomorrow initiative. Public Sociology students’ research is presented to Wilmington City Council each year to inform City Council of critical issues affecting low-income residents in Wilmington. Their research has been published in peer- reviewed journal articles as well as numerous local newspaper and magazine articles. In July 2010, the Wilmington Housing Authority received a NAHRO Agency Award of Merit in Housing and Community Development based on our work at the WHA-UNCW Community Campus at Hillcrest. The National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials give the award annually to housing and community development organizations that provide innovative solutions for meeting the needs of the low income residents in their communities

2. Lead Researcher and Founding Member Latino Lay Health Promotore Program – El Puente 2008-2012 El Puente is a Latino Lay Health Promotore Program providing health information, screening and health access support to Latino residents in Southeastern North Carolina. The Latino population in North Carolina has essentially quadrupled since 1990; indeed no state in the nation experienced a larger increase in Latino population from 1990 to 2010 than what North Carolina experienced. Once a feature of the interior of the state, the Southeast now faces the challenges of an immigrant population that is more likely to settle and stay, much more so than its transient, “revolving-door” nature of ten years ago. In both Duplin and Sampson counties the Latino population is well over 20%. Many of the rural Southeastern counties feel overwhelmed with the presence of a new ethnic group – pressures on social services providers, on schools, on jobs, on housing – particularly in rural counties which have felt the pain of economic restructuring of their manufacturing base. The costs of this new population in terms of social services, access to health care, and employment are just a few of the concerns El Puente addresses. From 2008- 2102 I provided research and programmatic planning to develop and create the Promotore Lay Health program and served on the Advisory Board. I wrote and received a grant from The Duke Endowment ($240,000) to get this project off the ground, on behalf of Oleander United Methodist Church, Wilmington, NC. In addition, I have recruited and worked with graduate August 2013

Articles: In Progress: (Please note: Since August of 2008, I have been the principal investigator for the Hillcrest Reading Program [HRP]. HRP is an after-school tutoring program for at-risk kids that uses the most empirically-validated method of teaching children to read.

The articles that are in the works are as follows:

(Co- Author with my research assistant, Jess MacDonald, and a couple of colleagues in the department; this article presents the first statistical comparisons between the progress HRP children have made and the progress of children attending two control group schools.

I. Overview

Increasingly, non-academic employers are becoming aware of the need for social science skills and for specific reliable information that they can use to assess policy, plan, pre-test, monitor and evaluate their efforts. Since many of the issues they confront are social in origin, current status, or consequence, it is clear to them that in order to respond appropriately, they require highly relevant and necessary information, knowledge and social science skills that can contribute to making and carrying out effective decisions.

The MA degree may serve as a gateway to a PhD program and subsequent career in higher education. The MA in Sociology and Criminology encompasses rigorous analyses of the values, assumptions, and social structures within local communities and global systems. Our program assists students in gaining significant insights into these social processes and structures in their desired professions.

In addition to preparing students for careers in academia, one of the main objectives of the program is to provide students with professional training to seek employment in federal, state, and local governmental agencies as well as in private-sector organizations.

The program provides students training in theory and methods as well as opportunities for them to apply theory and methods in a variety of settings that deal with substantive issues. These areas reflect the variety and depth of the department’s faculty interests including family, demography, minority studies, drugs, crime mapping, rural services, social policy, mental health, education, criminology, legal studies, poverty and criminal justice policy. The educational objectives of the program are to:

 prepare students for professional and/or academic careers in Sociology, Criminal Justice and Criminology  strengthen students’ analytical, research and writing skills  provide extended training in theory and methods  strengthen students’ ability to apply theory and methods to social issues, problems and policies  provide students opportunities to work with community organizations and leaders in internship settings, gaining hands-on knowledge and application of social science research methods and practice

Academic Honor Code

The University of North Carolina Wilmington is committed to the proposition that the pursuit of truth requires the presence of honesty among all involved. It is therefore this institution's stated policy that no form of dishonesty among its faculty or students will be tolerated. Although all members of the university community are encouraged to report occurrences of dishonesty, honesty is principally the responsibility of each individual. Academic dishonesty takes many forms, from blatant acts of cheating, stealing, or similar misdeeds to the more subtle forms of plagiarism, all of which are totally out of place in an institution of higher learning. Reporting and adjudication procedures have

been developed to enforce the policy of academic integrity, to ensure justice, and to protect individual rights. Complete details may be found in the UNCW Code of Student Life.

II. Degree Requirements

A. General Requirements for the MA in Sociology and Criminology

1. Core Courses (16 hours)

2. Concentration Areas (12 hours)

Public Sociology SOC 515 Globalization and Development (3) SOC 525 Racial and Ethnic Group Relations (3) SOC 530 Restorative Justice (3) SOC 543 Corporations and Consumer Culture (3) SOC 580 Social Justice (3) SOC 584 Community Development (3) SOC 590 Sociology of Poverty (3)

Students wishing to take electives offered by other departments or universities should consult with their advisor and the Graduate Coordinator when planning their program of study.

3. Thesis/Internship (6 hours)

B. Thesis Option

Students preparing a thesis must write a proposal and pass an oral defense in order to continue work on the thesis. Thesis committees consist of a faculty advisor and at least two other members of the graduate faculty. At least one of these faculty members must be a member of the Department of Sociology and Criminology. Students choosing this option must pass both the proposal and thesis defense to graduate from the MA program. Students must follow the guidelines from the Graduate School for Thesis formatting and deadlines. Please review, in detail, Graduate School expectations as outlined on their web pages: http://www.uncw.edu/grad_info/thesis_dissertation_information.htm.

C. Internship Option

The final internship project paper should reflect the unique internship experience of the student. This final project will be a catalogued, electronic copy, much like the thesis option, that will be part of the UNCW Library holdings as well as in the Sociology and Criminology department office. Expectations for each internship project will reflect the particular research agenda of each student and will be guided by the student’s internship committee; however, basic requirements include:

1) Identification of a general research question to be explored during the internship experience; 2) A theoretical framework for understanding the broader sociological context of the research question. 3) A review of literature pertaining to the internship focus; 4) A research design for the particular internship research and work experience (this will be unique to the internship expectations and focus); 5) Data collection (this will be unique to the internship expectations and focus); 6) A write-up of the internship experience; 7) Analysis. Drawing from theoretical and empirical evidence, the analysis should include practical solutions to the real-world social issue the student examines during the internship experience: typically recommendations for the organization, observations that may help the organization address the social issue being studied, policy recommendations based on analysis of data and/or analysis of work-experience and research.

While this is very similar to the thesis format, the final internship project differs in that it should be understood as applied research that seeks to address real-world social issues using a social scientific model. Students will need to demonstrate their understanding of the social science research method and the way in which their training as social scientists informs the real-world social issue of the organization in which they serve as intern.

The importance of the MA Internship Committee each student selects cannot be overstated. The student should have an internship advisor, as well as (at least) two faculty members from the department. This committee should serve as a sounding board throughout the student’s MA program and particularly during the internship experience. Students should seek faculty for their committee who provide theoretical, methodological and substantive guidance in crafting and writing their research project. Students should keep committee members apprised of their progress and intellectual development as the internship and writing experience unfolds. The committee will “sign-off” on (in essence “approve”) the proposed internship experience during the semester prior to the

internship assignment. The committee will hear the final internship project defense and “sign-off” on the final written project before it is submitted to the Graduate School.

D. Grading Policy

The basis for course grading is determined by the instructor. Most courses will have a participation requirement, so it is essential for students to understand that class attendance is vital for a successful experience. Although each faculty member has the discretion to determine his or her specific attendance policies, it is expected that graduate students will attend all classes unless they have professional obligations and have discussed their absence in advance with the faculty member. Frequent unexcused absences may result in a failing grade and loss of eligibility until the student can demonstrate to the faculty that he or she is in a position both professionally and personally to attend class on a regular basis.

Students wishing to appeal their final grade in a course should follow the procedures outlined in the UNCW Graduate Catalogue.

E. Course of Study

Students have two basic decisions regarding their course of study: 1) how quickly they will progress through the program and 2) which concentration they will pursue.

1. Pace of Study

A full-time track assumes nine (9) or more hours per semester, with summers devoted to elective coursework, thesis/project research, or “recuperation.” This pace will allow the student to earn the MA in two years (assuming prerequisites are completed in advance). Students currently working full-time are strongly discouraged from taking a full- time course load. Graduate assistants, fellows, and others working no more than 20 hours per week are candidates for full-time status. Students awarded graduate assistantships are required to maintain full-time status throughout their candidacy. Students desiring to take more than 9 hours are required to consult with their advisors or the Graduate Coordinator. Full-time status is defined as one of the following: a. Enrollment in at least 9 hours of coursework

b. Enrollment in at least 1 hour of thesis credit (CRM 599 or SOC 599) c. Enrollment in at least 1 hour of internship credit (CRM 598 or SOC 598) d. Enrollment in GRC 600 (graduation continuation credit)

2. Concentration Area

MA students are able to concentrate in either criminology or public sociology. In either case, graduates of the program will be able to tackle professional tasks that directly or indirectly involve human relationships. We expect our graduates to move on to careers as evaluators, researchers, planners, managers, advisors, program directors, and policy makers. The program also provides a strong foundation for those who seek to pursue a Ph.D. in traditional criminology and sociology programs.

One of the strengths of this program is the diverse theoretical, methodological, and substantive interests of the graduate faculty. Within public sociology, specific strengths include the study of rural and urban poverty, race-gender class inequalities and stratification, social structure and organizational power, globalization, and culture and media. Within criminology, there are specializations in collective and interpersonal violence, substance abuse, victimology, and social/restorative justice. Theoretical- methodological perspectives represented include macro-, micro-and multi-level approaches as well as structural, critical, feminist, and conflict theories.

Students must select a concentration area after their first 9 hours of coursework.

F. Graduate Assistantships/Fellowships

G. Degree Time Limits

A graduate student has five calendar years to complete his or her degree program. The period begins with the student’s first term of work after formal admission to a degree– granting program. Work completed as a non–degree student does not initiate the five– year period for completing a degree program. Both full-time and part-time students are required to follow the five-year time limit.

H. Ethical Conduct

Graduate students in the program are expected to abide by the ethical standards of conduct prescribed by American Sociological Association (www.asanet.org/about/ethics.cfm).

III. Procedures

A. Advising

All incoming students will receive formal academic advising at or before the program orientation session held at the beginning of the fall semester. At the Qualifying Assessment meeting (see below), the Graduate Coordinator and core-course faculty will recommend courses to students in subsequent semesters based on the course of study agreed upon in the student’s initial semester. After the Qualifying Assessment, students will identify a committee for their internship/thesis research. The Chair of this committee will then serve as the student’s advisor for the remainder of their graduate studies. Students should make course selection and registration decisions in consultation with this faculty member.

B. Qualifying Assessment

All students are required to have their performance assessed near the end of completion of the first 9 hours of MA study. The purposes of the qualifying assessment are to: 1) assess the candidate’s status in the program; 2) have the candidate declare a

concentration in either Criminology or Public Sociology; and 3) have the candidate design a course of study for the remainder of the program, with the assistance of graduate faculty. The assessment itself is a meeting between the student, the Graduate Coordinator, and instructors for the core sequence of courses (500, 503, and 505).

C. Internship/Thesis Proposal

The research project proposed through your internship or thesis must be approved in advance by an advisory committee. This committee advises you on the project both before and after the proposal stage, and is the body that determines satisfactory completion of the internship paper/thesis in partial completion of the MA degree. The following sequence is intended as a set of guidelines to follow in preparation of the internship/thesis proposal.

1) Select topic and methods. Write a brief description (1 to 2 pages) of the research topic that you wish to address in your internship or thesis. This can be done in consultation with the core-course faculty in the initial semester of coursework, and should be completed by the end of the first semester of full-time coursework. 2) Select thesis/internship advisor. Research faculty specialty areas to help you choose an advisor best suited to guiding you in the design of your research. 3) With the assistance of the thesis/internship advisor, select potential committee members. This committee should be selected in your second semester in the program. Using the form in the Appendix (“Graduate Advisory Committee Appointment”), you should notify the Graduate Coordinator and confirm that each committee member is willing to serve in this capacity. 4) Develop your internship/thesis proposal in consultation with your advisor and committee members. It is very important that you maintain close contact with your committee throughout the remainder of your residency in the program. This is not the time to seclude yourself. Research is an interactive process that should include your faculty advisors. Keep them informed of your progress. The proposal should contain two elements: 1) a literature review, and 2) a research proposal. These elements are covered in the first year of coursework. 5) When recommended by your advisor, and after several initial drafts have been written, send a draft of the proposal (hard copy) to each committee member at least two weeks before the proposal defense. 6) Proposal defense. Discuss project with your advisory committee, determine roles of committee members and project timeline - write up and distribute to all members (For theses, this should be before the end of the third semester of full- time coursework—the sooner in the semester, the better; for internships, this should be completed by the end of the semester prior to the internship assignment). Following your defense, the committee will determine whether you have passed or failed. Often, students will be asked to rewrite parts of the proposal. If a student does not pass, a specific plan will be formulated by the committee for remediation.

Students must successfully pass the proposal defense in order to enroll for CRM/SOC 598 or CRM/SOC 599.

D. Application for Graduation

Students must apply for graduation before participating in university and departmental commencement ceremonies. Students must apply for graduation the semester of intended graduation (see the Graduate School website for application deadlines).

E. Oral Defense of the Internship Paper/Thesis

You are required to defend your internship paper/thesis orally to your committee. The following sequence is intended as a set of guidelines to follow for completing a thesis/internship paper:

1) Upon successfully passing your proposal defense, work with your advisor and committee members on the project, providing drafts of work in progress as requested by the advisor. 2) In the semester you wish to defend, follow the Graduate School’s formatting guidelines (on their website) and submit a complete, formatted draft to the Graduate School for format approval (deadlines for format approval is on the Graduate School website). 3) At least two weeks before you want to defend, and upon approval of your advisor, provide a draft (hard copy) to all committee members. Each committee member will study and edit your document. If, at that time, the committee believes you are not ready to defend, they will ask you to cancel. Otherwise, the defense will proceed. This decision should occur no later than a week before the planned defense date. 4) Thesis/internship defense. Because the department wishes to celebrate your accomplishments, all thesis/internship paper defenses are open to the public. At a minimum, dates and times of defenses should be announced to the department via the MA program e-mail listserv and flyers posted in Bear Hall. The format of your defense is as follows: a. Presentation of your research to committee and attendees. b. Public period of questioning to the candidate (including questions of clarification from the audience). c. Non-public period of questioning of you by your committee. d. You are excused from the room to allow the committee to deliberate on whether you pass or fail the defense. e. You are invited back to the room, and the decision on whether you have passed or failed is conveyed to you immediately. Often, students who have passed will be asked to rewrite parts of the proposal before submitting the final draft to the Graduate School.

F. Graduation

Graduate students who have completed all degree requirements for July graduation may walk in the December ceremony and their names will be listed in the December commencement program; graduate students who have completed all degree requirements for December graduation may walk in the December ceremony and their names will be listed in the December commencement program; graduate students who

have completed all degree requirements for May graduation may walk during the May ceremony and their names will be listed in the May commencement program. A graduate student may walk only in the graduation ceremony in the term in which they graduate.

Graduate students who have not completed their internship/thesis may not participate in commencement ceremonies. Completion requires successful oral defense of the internship paper/thesis and a final signed copy submitted to the Graduate School by the required deadline (thesis deadlines for each semester are available on the Graduate School website).

IV. Facilities and Resources

A. Graduate Student Office and Computer Lab

Room 201D in Bear Hall is designated as the graduate student office for all students enrolled in the program. Students will be granted UNCW One Card access to the locked office upon initial registration. The primary purpose of this area is as a study area and computer workspace. Cooperation in keeping noise to a minimal level is greatly appreciated. Teaching assistants doing course-related work should also use this space for meeting with students.

The computers and laser printers in these rooms should only be used for work related to the graduate program, and are available for use by graduate students and faculty only. File storage on the UNCW network is strongly encouraged (see: uncw.edu/ITSD/learning/TimmyFileStorage.html). Students should familiarize themselves with university policy on appropriate use of university-owned computers.

B. E-mail, Mail and Telephone

The university electronic mail account that is assigned to each active student is the primary official means for communicating with individual or groups of students. Official university communications include, but are not limited to, enrollment information, grade information, financial information and policy, and announcements, as well as individualized notices. This system affords an efficient method for official messages to be disseminated to both on-and off-campus students. It is the responsibility of each student to frequently access their UNCW electronic mail account as it may contain an official communication from the department or the university.

Grad_SocCrm-L is the official listserv for the MA program. All incoming students are subscribed to this listserv, which is also subscribed to by current students and graduate faculty. The purpose of this listserv is to provide faculty and graduate students with information about upcoming events, professional opportunities, and general information related to the graduate program. Grad_SocCrm -L serves as the primary vehicle for communicating important information related to the graduate program. The Grad_SocCrm listserv is not intended as a forum for casual online conversation or informal chatter.

Students may also receive letters, journals and books using this address: [Your name], Dept. of Sociology & Criminology, UNC Wilmington, 601 S. College Rd., Wilmington, NC 28403-5978.

A telephone is available to students in the graduate student office for campus and local calls only. Graduate students should not use the telephones in the department office for any reason.

C. Building Security

You are expected to assist the department faculty and staff in maintaining building security. We want to maintain a safe and secure campus for ourselves, our students and our research subjects. Your UNCW One card allows you access to the building 24 hours a day, but you must be extremely careful about letting others into the building. If you are the last person to leave a room, it is your responsibility to ensure that the room is secure and that all equipment is shut off. No doors should be propped open if they are supposed to be locked. If you see one propped open, please close it and notify campus security if someone gives you trouble about this. If there is any trouble, please call Campus Security immediately. The non-emergency number is 962-2222.

Many times graduate students work late at night in the building. Please try to maintain knowledge of who else is there and be careful about leaving the building alone after dark. If you are leaving late and alone, campus police will give you an escort if you are at all uneasy.

D. Library

The William Madison Randall Library constitutes a vital instructional and research resource of the University. With seating provided for about 1,000 people, the library holds nearly 2 million items in various formats, of which 800,000 are books, bound journals, and printed government documents; 920,000 are microform pieces; and more than 22,000 are multimedia items. In addition, the library offers extensive indexes and full-text resources. These resources—including NC LIVE databases, LexisNexis, Science Direct, and JSTOR—provide access to indexing and full text for thousands of journals and books. An online catalog and circulation system provides easy, efficient access to most of the library’s collections. In addition, there are in a quiet study room and a computer lab for graduate students located on the 2nd floor of Randall Library. Both are accessible using your UNCW One Card.
