About SEA
The Sociology of Education Association (SEA) is an informal group of scholars
and educators from both the fields of sociology and education, who meet annually
to engage in discussion of issues at the intersection of sociology and education.
SEA exists outside of the formal structure of any of the major professional
associations. To belong to SEA you do not need to be a member of ASA, AERA,
or any other organization.
Dues are $25.00 per year for members and $15.00 per year for Retired and Student
members. Membership dues entitle you to a conference discount, access to the
Sociology of Education Association listserv, and newsletters or mailings.
Mission
-
To provide an
inexpensive annual
conference (held at
Asilomar on the Monterey Bay Peninsula, California) in which colleagues
from education, sociology, and other social sciences can
come together for discussion of topics of common interest.
-
To provide an
organizing vehicle for people interested in education
and sociology to get to know each other and to communicate
outside of the conference.
-
To introduce
graduate students and new Ph.D.'s into this community
of scholars.
-
To serve as an
information conduit for persons interested in education
and sociology to hear about recent research, job openings,
and other news of interest to the membership.
