This is an opportunity for incoming and current graduate students, faculty, and staff to hear about what makes us all Uniquely UCF Sociology.

In a time of social and physical distancing, we thought it would be a unique and important opportunity to host a virtual gathering to share department points of pride, welcome new students, celebrate the successes of our current students, and create new spaces for dialogue between our students, faculty, and staff as we all look forward to the fall 2020 semester.

The tentative schedule is below and will include several student and faculty speakers sharing points of pride about our department.
