82nd Annual Meeting of the Eastern Sociological Society
Millennium Broadway Hotel
New York, NY
February 23-26, 2012

Storied Lives: Culture, Structure, and Narrative

The 2012 meeting of the ESS will consider stories across a range of settings—at the workplace and in families, in communities and in religion, about immigration and about race, in the nation and across borders, about crime and about the law, and, not least, in the construction of both personal and collective identities. The meetings will examine the conditions under which men and women tell stories but also the conditions those stories help create.

2012 Travel Grants
For the 2012 meeting, ESS is pleased to announce it will be awarding student travel grants for the 2012 meeting in New York City. The Program Committee will award no more than ten grants – a maximum of nine grants to graduate students and one to an undergraduate. The grants will be up to $500 and will be awarded based on both need and the Program Committee’s judgment of the significance of the student’s contribution to the program. A simple application form is available at here
