The Sociology Club of Virginia Union University is an academic or- ganization dedicated to broadening the student's educational horizons through social, academic and community activity. This year the organiza- tion concentrated its efforts toward community concerns and acted as the student voice for change within the Sociology Department. The organization started with a full agenda. Recently it ratified its new- ly constructed constitution which was contained in the first edition of the club's newsletter. It then conducted a school-wide community involvement. For the month of December the club planned Christmas baskets with food and clothing for needy families, a sociology faculty-student forum to help achieve better rapport between students and faculty and to inspire change within the department.
