Associate Professor Martin Cooke has received the Angus Reid Practitioners/Applied Sociology Award issued by the Canadian Sociology Association.
The award "has been created to recognize sociologists who undertake community action projects that bring social science knowledge, methods, and expertise to bear in addressing community-identified issues and concerns" and "celebrates a Sociologists’ contribution to sociological practice that has served as a model for working with a community, organization or public service."
Today CBC has featured Professor Lorne Dawson (Sociology and Legal Studies) in two articles and one video. Over the past few years Prof. Dawson has increasingly appeared in national media providing insight and expert commentary on homegrown terrorism and the process of religious radicalization.
