Clubs and Honor Society The sociology club schedules guest lectures and sponsors various field trips of interest. Alpha kappa Delta, the international honor society of sociology, has an active chapter on campus and sponsors various workshops, seminars and colloquiums during the academic year. Conference Memberships The faculty and students of the programs actively participate in two conferences. During the fall, faculty and students present papers at the West Virginia State Sociological Association meeting. Shepherd was the host for the association conference in 1994. Both Dr. Brown and Dr. Darboe are past presidents of the WVSA. Also, each spring students from various programs present papers to the Mid-Atlantic Undergraduate Social Research Conference hosted by regional colleges and universities.
