A WELCOME FROM DEAN FOLKESTAD
The College of
Humanities and Social
Sciences is the largest
college at CSU-P. Its focus
is the exploration of the
human condition in all of
its varied forms—Art,
History, Language, Media,
Music, Philosophy,
Psychology, Social Work,
and Sociology.
The purpose of the
Southern Colorado
(SOCO) Conference is to
highlight the artistic and
scholarly efforts of the
faculty and students in our
region. These individuals
work hard to make
themselves experts in
their respective fields so
they can better the lives
of their students and their
communities.
That is why I would like
to welcome our guests
from Adams State
University, Eastern New
Mexico University,
Metropolitan State
University of Denver,
Pikes Peak Community
College, Pueblo
Community College, the
Pueblo Child Advocacy
Center, the Pueblo Rape
Crisis Center, and the
University of Colorado at
Colorado Springs.
I will also ask you to visit
downtown Pueblo, visit
the art galleries on first
Friday and have dinner at a
local restaurant. Welcome
to SOCO 2016!
