SOC (0170) 330 - Who Gets What and Why


Credits: 3.00

Students explore the question, “who gets what and why?” by learning about power, opportunity, and privilege.  We examine how the stratification system distributes resources, its consequences for individuals and groups, and persistence over time.  Special attention is given to income and wealth disparities across class, race, gender, ethnicity, & citizenship.

Prerequisite 1: SOC 100
