Sociology is the biggest waste of time I have ever spent in my entire college career. I got an A in it because I regurgitated what they wanted to hear and used words and approaches the professor probably didn't even understand. They tend to think that societies can be controlled and manipulated, that studying societies can make us "progress" in the sense of technological and scientific progress in understanding and "manipulating" societies. You are not going to do that with humans. There is just no science in it - after all it is a social "science".

BTW - I would guess almost all sociologists are Left and Liberal.

Well I want to take care of elderly people's needs in old folks homes and to be a coordinator the government requires a degree in Sociology.

I don't see why they can't have apprenticeships like the old days and just learn on the job.

However, this sociology class is not even for sociology majors, it is a class required to EVERYONE in Basic requirements, you MUST take a diversity class on race or gender or religious tolerance.

I am not sure when it became a requirement for basics but it seems unfair.
