2016 Welcome and Program Statement
Welcome to the joint meetings of the Midwest Sociological Society and the North Central Sociological Association-- a meeting likely to be the second largest sociological conference in the country this year. Bringing our organizations together for a single meeting, as we have done previously in 2007 and 2010, is always a great opportunity to reconnect with old friends and make new ones while reinvigorating ourselves by sharing ideas with colleagues. The theme of this year’s meeting is “Inequality, Injustice, and Intersectionality”. One only needs to access your news of choice to see continuing issues of inequality and injustice that have been a focus of sociology since the earliest days of our discipline. Unfortunately these same media outlets often provide limited analyses and attempt neat and easy explanations which ignores the structural sources of such problems. This is why our theme is so important. We know the complexity of these issues. We know the cultural and structural sources of these problems must be highlighted. We know that matters that seem to be racial problems are also about class, and gender and, religion, and segregation. It is important that others come to know this as well. The works of both of this year’s keynote speakers, Douglas Massey and Lori Peek, highlight the intersection of topics like ethnicity, immigration, identity, segregation, and economic inequality serve to highlight the value of understanding complexity. The meeting will include professional development opportunities for sociologists at different points in their career and in different career paths. Meeting attendees will have opportunities to participate in workshops to build their teaching and research skills. High school sociology instructors will be here on the first day of the conference alongside an Alpha Kappa Delta mini conference. We also have scheduled workshops designed to assist those doing quantitative and qualitative date collection, and on the role of sociology in general education. Finally we want to highlight both MSS and NCSA as organizations with long histories of supporting young scholars and helping them develop through the conference experiences. New faculty members, high school sociologists, graduate students, and undergrads as well often have their first conference experiences with our organizations-- it is important that we don’t lose that element during these combined meetings. With that in mind, we ask you to please make time in your schedule to attend the undergraduate roundtables on Thursday and Friday, seek out graduate student papers and give them all feedback. Combined meetings like these are a great opportunity for professional socialization which will only make our discipline stronger. We hope you enjoy your time in Chicago and take advantage of the program we’ve assembled. There are several unique workshops and panels that will highlight new innovations in our discipline and higher education in general, and of course the papers that are the heart of any conference. Again, welcome and thanks for participating. Deborah White Robert Carrothers Minnesota State University Moorhead Ohio Northern University

Teaching and Reaching Generation Z [WORKSHOP] Presider: Amanda J Miller, University of Indianapolis Generation Z, sometimes referred to as the “Digital Native” generation, is making its way onto college W campuses in larger percentages than any cohort that has come before it. These students are often thought of as unfocused and able to engage socially only through a screen. What is less clear, is who E these students are, what strengths they bring with them to the classroom and how we as instructors can best reach them. In this workshop, we discuss characteristics of this unique group and provide tips and tricks on how to best engage Generation Z in the classroom.

Critical Theory and the Everyday Life of the Theorist [PANEL] Presider: Michael J Thompson, William Paterson University Self-interrogations are the task of critical theorists who take seriously the ways our subjective positions in space and time mediate our interpretation of the world. However, in a hyper-alienated society, we often face the contradiction “that the better one understands society, the more difficult it is to make oneself useful within it” (Adorno, 2000[1968]:3). A common reaction is to experience cognitive dissonance and conform to demands made of modern bureaucracy in exchange for the securities they promise. This panel will discuss ways that critical theory both produces and confronts these issues and can be used in both guiding our research and our academic trajectories. • Harry F.

Diversity in Numbers, but Not Curriculum [PANEL] Presider: Harriette Moore, Washtenaw Community College W Minority students at predominantly white institutions often have separate and unequal experiences. They feel isolated because of a disconnection between their cultural background and the academic E curriculum; yet many white students see no value in being exposed to these communities for which they themselves feel no connection. While these institutions have worked tirelessly to diversify the student body, they have not diversified the canons of knowledge. This session aims to highlight the D need for curricular diversification--contributions of authors of color and topics on issues that affect people of color.

Assess and Destress: Yoga and Meditation I Presider: Curtis Linhart, Paragon Personal Training The session will begin with instruction on basic meditation and breathing techniques. Then participants will be lead through an hour long Vinyasa Yoga class. Vinyasa yoga can best be defined as “breath-synchronized movement,” and is a series of poses that will move you through the power of inhaling and exhaling. Vinyasa movements are smoothly flowing which explains why it is sometimes referred to as Vinyasa Flow or just Flow. Through several postures, participants will explore their T strength, flexibility and balance. The class will be structured so that it will be accessible to all levels of participants. Curtis has been a personal trainer in the Des Moines area for the past 25 years. A certified H Pilates instructor for the past 13 years, he rediscovered yoga two years ago and has since received his U RYT 200. [Feel free but not required to bring your own mat.]

From cafes and churches to community centers and union halls, the Bronzeville and Washington Park communities offer a living museum of important moments in the history of both labor and civil rights. Two scholars familiar with The Labor Trail, a map and interactive website of “Chicago’s History of Working-Class Life and Struggle,” will lead a tour of these neighborhoods’ history.

Interpreting Student Evaluations for Increased Learning [WORKSHOP] Presider: Melinda Messineo, Ball State University In this era of data driven decision making, it is important to think about teaching evaluations as more than something to be endured or weapons that can cause harm. Our challenge is to interpret the evaluations within a context of learning. We can use feedback received to inform our pedagogy for increased learning. This workshop will explore six common themes in student comments and provide interpretations of the pedagogical learning challenge that they may represent. Specifically we will focus on: clarity, alignment, student focus and the myth-of-multitasking, scaffolding, transparency, practice and metacognition.

TOUR: Gentrification Tour of Chicago’s South Side Organizer: David Boden, Lake Forest College Tour Leader: Chicago Center for Urban Life and Culture Maligned for decades as a “vast wasteland,” and avoided at all costs by the tourista set, the South Side is rich in history and diverse in cultures, races and classes. From historic Bronzeville, made famous in “The Black Metropolis,” to the Stockyards of “The Jungle,” the 1893 World’s Fair of “Devil in the White City,” and Bridgeport, birthplace of four Chicago Mayors, the South Side has provided the lore and the pulse of the city in industry, music and politics. The transformation taking place around the stable, middle class African American communities of “Black Picket Fences,” which is replacing public housing with half million dollar townhouses will be incorporated in an extensive view of south side communities.

Screening of Tested: Diversity and Public Schools, a documentary by Curtis Chin Presiders: Curtis Chin, Director, Tested; Deborah White, Minnesota State University Moorhead The gap in opportunities for different races in America remains extreme. Nowhere is this more evident than our nation’s top public schools. In New York City, where blacks and Hispanics make up 70% of the city’s school-aged population, they represent less than 5% at the city’s most elite public high schools. Meanwhile, Asian Americans make up as much as 73%. This documentary follows a dozen racially and socioeconomically diverse 8th graders as they fight for a seat at one of these schools. Their only way in: to ace a single standardized test. Tested includes the voices of such education experts as Pedro Noguera and Diane Ravitch as it explores such issues as access to a high-quality public education, affirmative action, and the model-minority myth.

We mobilize millions of supporters around the world for campaigns like #RefugeesWelcome for the Syrian refugees and #MyBodyMyRights for women's human rights. We support people to claim their rights through education and training.

Jan Rehmann Max Weber: Modernisation as Passive Revolution A Gramscian Analysis With Gramsci’s theory of hegemony as his starting point, this volume provides a comprehensive socio-analysis of Max Weber’s political and intellectual position in the ideological network of his time. Rehmann lucidly and witheringly argues that, even though Weber presents his science as’value-free,’ the forefather of sociology’s system is best understood as an organic intellectual of the bourgeoi- sie advocating for a new model of capitalist hegemony.
