Ohio State Sociology In the News
Professor John Casterline was quoted in a 10/25/21 Columbus Dispatch article entitled, “Ohio deaths surpass births in 2020-The reversal is a first in state’s history.” The linked article is paywalled.
Professor Korie Edwards’ work has been chosen to receive a President's Research Excellence (PRE) Catalyst Award. The project is entitled, “University Collaboration on Overcoming Attitudinal and Situational Barriers to Collaborative Initiatives to Advance Racial Equity: A Confluence of Dispute Process Design, Law & Social Science.” These competitive awards provide up to $200,000 to support large cross- and interdisciplinary teams pursuing large-scale, high-impact research that addresses emerging or existing challenges of national and international societal importance, generates long-term, sustained, and significant impact, and positions Ohio State as THE leader in this area. Congratulations Korie!
