Advisement and Registration
Students majoring in sociology should schedule at least two meetings each semester with their advisor. Also, all students majoring in sociology should plan their schedules in all cases with the assistance of their faculty advisor. Other faculty members and the Chairperson are also available to assist students.
Students should report to the Department Office during the first week of each semester to complete an Inventory Form. Also, a new form must be completed whenever a student’s address or telephone number changes during the course of the semester.
