Spring 2007
Editor: Kristin Meulemans, Sociology Student Assistant
SITTING IN THE HIGH CHAIR
A MESSAGE FROM THE ACTING CHAIR – DOUG FORBES
As you can see, while the department of Sociology continues to function (more or
less normally) there have been a few minor changes during this academic year.
First, to calm your fears, Dr. Enright hasn’t been replaced as Chairman of the
Department. On the contrary, he is spending most of the Spring 2007 semester
teaching in Australia. While he is gone, I am attempting to fill in and not destroy
the reputation or morale of the Department.
Aside from really minor issues, we are much the same department as Bob wrote about in last year’s newsletter –
another year older and wiser (I hope), certainly more recognized. Dr. Gary Itzkowitz was honored with his second
Katz Award, one of two faculty to be receiving this award from the College of Letters and Sciences this year. I
know all of you reading this will want to send Gary congratulations, as do all of us here on campus.
We continue to pursue, through the bureaucracy, our plans to offer a Social Work degree. We hope to have a final
verdict on our proposal from the administration by the end of the academic year. With that in mind, I am happy
to report that the number of Sociology majors continues to rise here at U.W.S.P. As of March of this year, we
have 244 declared Sociology majors, which is almost a 17 percent increase over 10 years ago, and over 40 percent
higher than the number of declared majors in 1998. Although I don’t have historical figures at my fingertips right
now, the number of minors is roughly half our number of majors, so we appear to be in good shape in that regard.
The faculty, on the other hand, as you can see in the next pages of this newsletter, remain active in all the areas of
teaching, scholarship, and service.
As always, keep us in mind if and when you return to campus or for the major events in your life. Send us an
email or note to let us know how and what you’re doing.
Cheers,
Doug

SCHOLARSHIPS
i Gordon Shipman Memorial Scholarship: In the spring of 1992, upon his death, a scholarship was established to
honor Dr. Gordon Shipman, Professor of Sociology, who served UW-SP with distinction from 1966 to 1974. His
research interests were in the areas of Family and Crime and Delinquency. Dr. Shipman was chair of the department from 1966-1970. In 1971, the Wisconsin Board of Regents granted him Professor Emeritus status at UW-SP. Students
and faculty remember Dr. Shipman as an enthusiastic, energetic, concerned and caring teacher as well as an activist and leader in
local political and community life. The 2007 recipient of this scholarship is Scott Farrell.
i George I.J. Dixon Memorial Scholarship: The fund for this scholarship was inaugurated through contributions from his colleagues
and former students during the department’s 40th Anniversary Celebration in the spring of 1995. Professor George Dixon
joined the faculty in 1954 and served until his retirement as Professor Emeritus in 1976. He was the first Ph.D. sociologist at
UW-SP, was instrumental in instituting the sociology major and creating a separate Department of Sociology, and served as its
first chair in 1961. Professor Dixon is remembered for his personal commitment and encouragement of students to perform
community service, work for social change, and promote social justice. The 2007 recipients of this scholarship are Erin
Bossenbroek and Ashley Sinkula.
i Virginia Fish Scholarship in Sociology: This fund was established September 2006 by Arthur Fish, husband of emeritus sociology
faculty member Virginia Kemp Fish, to honor her longtime dedication and service to the department. The scholarship is specifically designated for students who have a deep interest in women’s studies and gender issues, or social deviance. The 2007
recipient of this scholarship is Cynthia Berg.
i Wolensky Family Scholarship. The scholarship is distributed annually to a Sociology major studying with UWSP in Poland, England,
Australia, or Germany. It is one of several scholarships within the International Programs Scholarship Endowment (IPSE),
which is part of the UWSP Foundation. IPSE was created 10 years ago by former faculty leaders and alumni who wanted to
facilitate study abroad participation at UWSP. Students interested in applying for this or other IPSE scholarships can contact
the International Programs office on the first floor of CCC. The recipient of the first Wolensky Family International Scholarship is Krystal Makins, a Sociology major who will study in Krakow, Poland during the fall 2007 semester.

BOB ENRIGHT LEADS SEMESTER ABROAD TO AUSTRALIA
Bob Enright led 39 students, including two UWSP sociology majors, Emma Akers and Marissa Eckhert, in the Semester Abroad
Program to Australia this spring semester. Bob split the semester’s leadership responsibilities with recently retired College of
Natural Resources Professor of Forestry, Hans Schabel. Bob led
the second half of the program, meeting the group in Sydney and
leading them on the 10-day exit tour through the South Island of
New Zealand.
“I’m grateful to the department for supporting my efforts to lead
this program,” Bob said. “It’s not often that a department chair
has the opportunity to participate in a semester abroad, but I’ve been on the list to lead this program for nearly a
decade, and I didn’t want to pass up the opportunity for this experience.”
Bob taught two courses as part of this program. One was Population Problems, which he taught online for the
first portion of the semester while the students were in Australia and he was in Stevens Point. He finished the
course in class during the second half. He also taught International Studies 300 which is the study-tour course,
including field trips and lectures.
One of the strengths of a study tour is that it combines academic and experiential learning: We learned, for example, about Aboriginal culture not only through reading and lectures, but also through museum visits, meeting Aboriginal people, and watching their performances.
Bob says that he enjoyed the company of his students. “These students never ceased to amaze me with their enthusiasm and motivation to soak up every minute of this experience. They were remarkably open to new ideas and
places, and they approached the whole experience with gusto.” They learned so much and taught me a great deal
as well. Bob’s wife, Joan, and their two sons, Michael (age 15) and Robert (age 12), joined him on the trip. “This
was the trip of a lifetime for all of us.”

The Department’s Internship Program aims to prepare students for work in the human services field by providing an opportunity to build skills and enhance knowledge
in a variety of practice settings. Students are given the opportunity to apply what they
have learned in the classroom to actual community and client situations. Community
agency placement sites encompass work with a variety of client populations, social
issues, and professionals. Students can conduct either an applied sociology practicum
under the direction of Professor Woody Bishop or a social work practicum under the
direction of Professor Amy Boelk. The Department is fortunate to have strong working relationships with a variety of social agencies throughout Central Wisconsin. The
Department wishes to thank the following participating agencies for their dedication
to student development over this academic year. The Department would also like to

SOCIOLOGY CLUB NEWS
Written by Jamie Seefelt
The Sociology Club has been active on the UWSP campus since the 1987-88 school year. The club provides a wide rang of volunteer opportunities in order to learn directly about different populations and social problems, and also gain practical experience for
possible future careers in social service organizations or social work.
This year, the Sociology Club has been working hard to get sociology and other students on campus involved in sociology and social
justice issues. In November, Jamie Seefelt and Ali Bodendein went to the School of Americas Vigil, where they learned about many
organizations in the U.S. and abroad. This past semester we have continued cooking dinner at the Salvation Army Hope Center
twice a month. We have also made valentines and cupcakes for residents of the Portage County Health Care Center. We helped
organize a presentation for Professor Bob Wolensky for his new book on the Avondale Mine Disaster. We did a presentation at the
annual Boxes and Walls event on campus to raise awareness of homelessness in the community. We have participated in Books
from the Heart, Bowl for Kids Sake, and Hunger Clean Up. We also provided 22 volunteers to supervise and have a good time with
kids from families who adopt, at the annual Friends of Adoption Retreat at the Lodge in Cedar Creek.

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT-
SCOTT FARRELL
Written by: Kristin Meulemans
Scott Farrell began at UWSP in fall of 2002. While enrolled here at the University, Scott is pursuing a major
in Sociology and minors in Business Administration and Environmental Law Enforcement. His stay here at
UWSP was put on hold for a time when he was sent overseas with his National Guard unit to Kuwait. We
are glad to have him back.
After graduation, which Scott is looking forward to next May, he plans on going in law enforcement or pursuing other options in central WI, barring him winning the lottery or entering the NFL.
Scott came to UWSP from his hometown of Neenah, WI. Outside of his responsibilities at the University, he enjoys being
outdoors. With fishing gearing up, it will be a good challenge getting through the rest of the semester. Beyond his admiration for the outdoors, Scott spends time volunteering for the Boys’ and Girls’ Brigade of Neenah-Menasha, and volunteering at a youth camp run by the Boys’ and Girls’ Brigade. Good luck with all of your future plans!!!
