  • History of the Town of Darien, Georgia - Established 1736
    History of the Town of Darien, Georgia - Established 1736 There are over 100 miles of pristine coastline, 400,000 acres of salt water marsh and 15 Barrier Islands that bring a uniqueness to Coastal Georgia that you will seldom find anywhere else in the world. The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway which stretches from Key West to Boston, is connected to the local Altamaha River, which is the second largest fresh water discharge east of the Mississippi River. This charming coastal Georgia town sits just off of the mouth of the Altamaha River on the local deep-water docks of the Darien River. It is located just 25 miles from the prestigious shoreline of Sea Island, Georgia, one of the fastest growing luxury markets in the country and home to some of the country’s wealthiest … movie stars as well as professional athletes. FOUNDED BY SCOTTISH HIGHLANDERS ON JANURY 19, 1736 The town of Darien has a wealth of history dating back to the 1700’s. In October 1735, a band of Highland Scots, recruited from the vicinity of Inverness, Scotland, by Hugh Mackay and George Dunbar, sailed from Inverness, Scotland on the Prince of Wales. On January 19, 1736, General James Edward Oglethorpe founded the new Georgia colony of New Inverness, which later became known as Darien, Georgia. Located at the mouth of the Altamaha River, Fort King George was built in 1721 along what is now known as the Darien River and served as the southernmost outpost of the British Empire in the Americas until 1727. It is the oldest English fort remaining on the Georgia coast.

  • The Southern Sociologist
    The Southern Sociologist Volume 41 Number 2 Fall 2009 SSS President’s Message Mark October 15, 2009, on your calendars! That is the deadline for online submissions of papers and suggested sessions for the 2010 Southern Sociological Society Meetings to be held at the Hyatt Hotel in Atlanta, April 21-25. You will receive email announcements and reminders that submissions are open. Planning is underway with Program Co-Chairs John Reynolds (Florida State University) and Don Reitzes (Georgia State University). The Conference theme is “Worlds at Risk at the Turn of the Millennium.” As my message in the summer The Southern Sociologist argued, “risk” is a pervasive sociological phenomenon that has structural as well as random elements. Most of us study aspects of risk across lives and social contexts. Hence, papers that span topics from environmental studies, to race-class-gender dy- namics, health and mortality, public policy and cross-national differences in values and social structures fit with this theme. Please gather your thoughts and plan to participate next April. We have gotten commitments from two great plenary speakers so far: Evelyn Nakano Glenn, President of the American Sociological Association and Professor of Sociology at the University of California at Berkeley and George Ritzer, our colleague from the University of Maryland who is going to share his analysis of aspects of the global financial crisis we are all experiencing in (Continued on page 2) Contents 2009 Call for Papers..........................2 50 Fun Things to do in Atlanta................5 2009 SSS Awards..............................13 The Teaching Corner..........................19 Opportunities................................26 Job Opportunities ...........................27 Southern Sociological Society................29 The Southern Sociologist Page 2 Fall 2009 SSS PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE (Continued from page 1) diverse ways.
