Public Sociologists

by Kieran Healy on July 2, 2004

I agree with Brayden. In a year when the theme of the ASA’s annual meeting is “Public Sociologies”:http://www.asanet.org/convention/2004/themhome.html, it’s appropriate that the winner of the ASA’s dissertation award is a “Blogger”:http://brokengoalie.typepad.com/kickasswomen/2004/07/brian_g_kicks_a.html. Congratulations to “Brian Gifford”:http://ist-socrates.berkeley.edu/~hptp/rwjf_scholars.htm#BG and also co-winner “Greta Krippner”:http://www.soc.ucla.edu/faculty.php?lid=2399&display_one=1.

Brian is actually the third sociologist blogger to win the award. Kieran and Jeremy Freese are both former winners.

Thank you, Kieran, for the recognition. I’m both honored and shamed that I have dropped off the blogplane. Now I have a mission.
