New Rural Sociology Course for Spring Quarter!

Rural Sociology 542 (call #18580-8)
Leadership and Community Development
Monday and Wednesday, 1-2:48 PM; Lazenby Hall 0034

This new 5-hour course is focused on effective leadership styles within the context of the American community. It combines an in-depth understanding of sociological concepts of community, power, social capital and social change, and how these help understand the context in which leadership is expressed in a variety of jurisdictions, including counties, small towns and large cities. This course is ideal for anyone interested in politics, working for public service agencies (fire, police, public health etc.) and involvement in community-based volunteer organizations, such as churches, civic groups and local charities. The instructor, Dr. Joseph F. Donnermeyer, is a winner of the OSU Alumni Award for Distinguished Teaching.

RS 542 fulfills a requirement for the Rural Sociology undergraduate minor!
