A group of faculty at Georgetown University is developing a “Labor and Working-Class Studies” minor in collaboration with Georgetown’s Kalmanovitz Initiative for Labor and the Working Poor. The group is led by sociologist Brian McCabe and by WCSA founders Sherry Linkon, now an English professor at Georgetown, and John Russo, now a visiting researcher at Kalmanovitz. The minor will be an interdisciplinary course of study drawing on existing Georgetown curricula in the social sciences, English, history, justice and peace studies, international health, and the culture and politics program in the School of Foreign Service. For more see Georgetown’s student newspaper The Hoya.
