Greetings from the Sociology Student Association!
                This is to announce our next SSA meeting:  Wednesday,
September 15th, Noon, University Hall (UH) 418
                Topic of meeting:
                Based on student enthusiasm for the topic, we are going to
explore the SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF THE ARLINGTON STADIUM PROPOSAL.
Student led research teams will look at historical trends in proposal and
levy voting in Arlington, will look at the economic impacts of similar
stadium proposals in other North American cities, will explore the
neighborhoods that will be displaced in terms of number of households and
the extent to which there is equivalent housing in the Arlington area for
these displaced residents.  In addition, some surveys and/or in-depth
interviews will be conducted in the neighborhoods proposed to be affected by
the new stadium.
                One of the short-term goals of this research is for students
to write guest columns and/or editorials regarding their findings in area
newspapers (e.g., Shorthorn, Arlington Star Telegram) before the November
2nd elections.
                You will get real-world, hands-on experience learning and
doing both quantitative and qualitative research that can potentially make a
difference on November 2nd.
                WHAT: Research Planning and Interest Meeting
                WHEN:  Wednesday, Sept 15, Noon
                WHERE:  UH 418      WHO: All majors, undergrad and grad
students, welcomed!
