Choosing a Topic

1. Mathematical Sociology I would like to learn about how Math can be used to form social theories and reinforce any possible social constructs.

2. Group Structure This topic seems interesting to expand on because what it means to be part of a group and what defines a group of people.

3. Social Class This topic is also interesting because of the ranks that we place others and ourselves in based on different social factors.

4. Social exclusion This topic is interesting because I would like to know what it takes for a person or group of people to be excluded and blocked from receiving rights and goods from a particular society

Prof Garcia's Response

Hi Jean. Although these are all very interesting topics, I don't think that any of them will be good for this project. Topics 1, 3, and 4 have wayyyyy too much on their pages. It will be extremely hard for you to add anything of substance. And the page for Group Structure has nothing on it, which means that it will be very difficult to get that going also. I suggest that you go to the links of the stub articles that I sent in a previous email (check Blackboard) for topics that need additions. Alfgarciamora (talk) 21:56, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
