Please take a moment to note the details of this event. TOWARD A SOCIOLOGY OF CULTURE AND COGNITION November 12-13, 1999 In recent years, a small but growing chorus of voices has argued for the utility of a sociology of the mind. Proponents of this agenda, a group rooted primarily in the study of culture, contend that targeted sociological work on culture and cognition would greatly enhance the existing literatures on human thought. In order to firmly establish a coherent sociology of culture and cognition, I have organized a two day national conference designed to engage this topic. The conference, entitled "Toward a Sociology of Culture and Cognition,"will take place on November 12-13, 1999. The event will be held on the Rutgers University campus. This conference will consist of both formal panels and informal discussion sessions. In this way, participants will have the opportunity to engage in lively and in-depth discussion of issues. A complete conference schedule is available at our web site: http://sociology.rutgers.edu/conference/ The site also provides information about meeting room locations, registration, lodging, and directions to the campus. Should you have further questions or require additional information, please contact me at (908) 317-9727 or at cerulo(a)rci.rutgers edu I look forward to seeing you at what promises to be a most engaging event. Karen A. Cerulo Associate Professor of Sociology
