The Tradition of Sociology at Fisk University (2010)

unapi

The existing sociological literature includes a dearth of inquiries into the establishment and development of sociology at predominately Black institutions. This exclusion may tacitly imply to neophyte, intermediary and senior sociologists that these academic units did not offer any substantive contributions to sociology during its formative years in this nation. The primary objective of this endeavor is to examine the establishment and development of the Fisk University Department of Sociology in such a manner that could, at a minimum, extend the current literature on sociology at predominately Black institutions and, at best, produce findings that place the contributions of this unit within the cannon of significant contributors to the discipline.
