From Program ChairAmy Leisenring
I first met Amy Orr when we served on the PSA Nominations Committee together in 2010. In subsequent years we served on several Program Committees together and also served on overlapping years as PSA Council members. I've thus gotten to know her fairly well over the years and have enjoyed seeing her at annual PSA conferences. I've always been very impressed with Amy's work style. She is committed, patient, resourceful, genuine, and unflappable. She is extremely dedicated to PSA. The theme she selected for this year's conference reflects her commitment to teaching and to students. When she asked me to serve as this year's Program Chair, I knew that working with her would only be a positive experience. It has been a true honor to work with her in putting together the 2018 conference.
I would like to thank the 2018 Program Committee members. This year's conference would not have been successful without their time, effort, and expertise. I would also like to give a huge thank you to our Executive Director, Lora Bristow, for her knowledge, hard work, and patience. She has been a pleasure to work with.

ANOTE OFAPPRECIATION FROM THE PRESIDENT
I would like to take a moment to welcome everyone to Long Beach and the 89th Annual Meeting of the Pacific Sociological Association, and to thank all who have been instrumental in planning the program and organizing the meeting. We have another great program this year due to the initiative and diligence of many fabulous people. I would like to thank Amy Leisenring, our Program Chair, who did an amazing job of planning/coordinating the program. Amy has been very engaged with the PSA for many years, and it was an honor to have her serve in this position. Those of you who have had an opportunity to work with her will not be surprised to hear that she went above and beyond the normal tasks associated with this position. Amy also selected a fantastic program committee, who meticulously worked on special sessions and organizing papers from the open call into numerous high-quality sessions. I would like to extend a special thank you to Robert Kettlitz for his work as the undergraduate coordinator. For many years now, he has organized hundreds of undergraduate submissions into roundtables and poster sessions. He understands the importance of our students in the organization, and ensures that they have a positive experience. I would also like to thank Gary Hytrek, who not only chaired the Social Conscience Committee, but also served as our “local expert” in Long Beach. He was instrumental in planning the tours and entertainment. In addition, thank you to all of the PSA committee chairs and committee members, as well as the individual PSA members, who organized sessions around the theme (as well as several other sessions). They had no obligation to undertake this task. We will benefit from all of their hard work.
In addition, I would like to thank several others who have played a key role in making this meeting, and the PSA, a success. For example, it has been wonderful working with such a committed Board of Directors. Thank you for all of the time that you devote to the PSA. I would also like to extend a special thank you to Lora Bristow, our Executive Director. Lora does the work that keeps our organization running, and much more. One cannot truly understand what this entails until you have had an opportunity to work with her “behind the scenes” (and, even then, you still cannot get the full picture). Those inside and outside of the PSA often throw things at Lora that would cause many of us to break. I am extremely grateful that she holds this position. I would also like to thank Wendy Ng, our Vice President. I have had the privilege of working with Wendy in a number of different ways, and, regardless of the task at hand, she is thoughtful, organized, and dedicated. Moreover, I would like to thank Tina Burdsall for always being willing to step forward when help is needed. Her work as the PSA secretary, and as the volunteer coordinator, has been invaluable. Additionally, I would like to thank Patricia Gwartney for the many ways that she has served. Patty brings a wealth of knowledge to our organization, and her input and remarkable eye for detail is always appreciated.
There are many others to whom I am grateful as well. I would like to thank, for example, the editors and editorial board of Sociological Perspectives, as well as the Publications Committee, for all of the time and energy that they commit to the journal. We all benefit from your devotion. I would also like to thank several organizations with whom the PSA has built strong partnerships. These include, but are not limited to, Alpha Kappa Delta, the American Sociological Association, SAGE, and Sociologists for Women in Society (SWS). These relationships are incredibly important and beneficial for all involved.
Next, I greatly appreciate all of the individuals who give to the PSA in a variety of ways. In addition to those already mentioned above, I would specifically like to thank all of the terrific student volunteers who have given their time to making the registration process run smoothly, and the many generous individuals who have donated to the Endowment Fund and the Endowment Auction.
Finally, to all of our meeting participants, without you, there would be no need to convene. Thank you for your commitment to making the annual meeting of the PSA a vibrant, intellectual forum.
I am greatly honored to have served as president of the PSA this year. Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Congratulations to our next two presidents, Elaine Bell Kaplan and Dennis Downey. You will be great.

Thursday • 12:00 PM–1:30 PM The New Era of Campus Politics: Struggles over Ideology and Identity in Four Battleground States
American university campuses are both the subject of, and home to, political contentiousness not seen since the 1960s. Both now and 50 years ago, students have been key mobilizing agents, staging protests and other events to advocate their political perspectives. Despite the commonalities, the current period is marked by additional forces. First, the Trump presidency has created opportunities for previously illegitimate political actors, such as white nationalists, to use university campuses as beachheads for their movement. Second, as recent polls have shown, student unrest is paired with a growing, overall public mistrust in the mission of higher education, as evidenced by critique on issues ranging from free speech to college debt. Third, large national organizations thus far, particularly on the right have underwritten student activism on campus in an unprecedented fashion. Expanding on themes each of us has developed in prior research on conservative activism, in this project, we study student activism across the political spectrum during academic year 2017-2018. Our research design is to focus on public flagship campuses in four battleground states Arizona, Colorado, Virginia, and North Carolina with a particular eye to how national organizations, university resources, and student groups intersect in the production of campus politics. In this session, we will present findings from two of our case study campuses.
Organizer: Amy J. Orr, Linfield College
Speakers: Amy Binder, UC San Diego; Jeffrey Kidder, N. Illinois University
Thursday • 1:45 PM–3:15 PM Fighting Fake News with Project Censored: A Workshop for Educators, Students, and Concerned Citizens
Are you an educator interested in adding media literacy to your courses? Are you a student who wants to study media, propaganda, and censorship? Are you a media consumer concerned about fake news? For over 40 years, Project Censored has been monitoring the state of our free press while exposing corporate media and government censorship and propaganda. The Project produces an annual book (published by Seven Stories Press in New York) that lauds intrepid independent journalists and promotes critical media literacy education. In their latest work, they discuss the importance of press freedoms and public education in a "post-truth" world of so-called alternative facts and fake news. The Project highlights the work of reporters who write about crucial issues for independent/alternative publications year around and remind the public why we need fearless investigative journalists now more than ever. Project Censored continues to critique the increase of Junk Food News and News Abuse (propaganda) in our infotainment culture, and through their college affiliate programs, they strongly promote critical media literacy education as the real antidote to our fake news culture not big tech algorithms, blacklists, or censorship. Join the conversation in this informative presentation and workshop and learn more about what you can do help fight fake news and support a truly independent and free press both inside the classroom and out in the public sphere.
Organizer: Amy J. Orr, Linfield College
Facilitators: Mickey Huff and Andy Lee Roth, Project Censored

Thursday • 10:15 AM–11:45 AM Redesigning the Sociology Curriculum: Principles, Priorities, and Challenges
The Sociology Program at CSU Channel Islands is completing an extensive multi-year process to redesign its curriculum, guided by best practices and principles (primarily from the ASA "liberal learning" documents, but drawing on a range of sources from inside and outside the discipline). We will present a number of key components of our work in an attempt to distill the lessons that we have learned along the way as well as to identify specific priorities (and how they were reached) and specific challenges (in terms of content, and in terms of buy-in) that have been addressed along the way. We believe that our experiences are timely, given the recent release of the newest ASA Liberal Learning document (LL3) which will encourage programs to update their curricula for the 21st century challenges that our students confront. We will leave plenty of time for Q&A from audience members who may be considering their own curricular revisions.

The structure and content of TRAILS submissions will be presented. Various assessment strategies will be considered, as well as formulation of measurable learning goals. Strategies of strengthening submissions will be examined. Additionally, under-examined areas of inquiry will be identified, along with guidance on ways to formulate projects to fit into unexplored domains. This workshop will be especially useful for meeting attendees who are presenting original work on pedagogy and curriculum design at the annual meeting.

Thursday • 1:45 PM–3:15 PM Teaching as Latinx Faculty in Higher Education
This panel will focus on the experiences of Latinx faculty in the classroom and as professional academics. The presenters will cover a range of topics that relate to faculty who teach in community colleges and at the university level, including working with a diverse student body, cultural taxation, mentorship, and the demands of contingent labor.
Organizer: Michael Chavez, CSU Long Beach
Invited Panelists: Michael Chavez, CSU Long Beach; Juan Pitones, Oxnard College; Rebecca Romo, Santa Monica College; Shigueru Tsuha, Pierce College; Claudia Lopez, CSU Long Beach; Yanira Fuentes, Riverside City College
Friday • 10:15 AM–11:45 AM Preparing Graduate Students for Teaching-Focused Colleges and Universities
The purpose of this session is to help prepare graduate students, many of whom attend R1 programs, for jobs and positions at teaching-oriented schools. This session was sparked by the idea that many graduate students who plan to apply to teaching-oriented schools are not exposed to them, and thus may not fully understand how these smaller schools may differ from R1 schools. Topics of this session may include how to prepare job application materials, the ways in which the work environment differs, the expectations placed on faculty in teaching-oriented schools, and other insights useful for students who are interested in pursuing teaching-oriented schools after graduate school.
Organizer: Eric Allen, Washington State University
Invited Panelists: Jodi O`Brien, Seattle University; Lindsey Trimble-O`Connor, CSU Channel Islands; John Stover, Santa Rosa Junior College Petaluma; Marisol Clark-Ibáñez, CSU San Marcos
Friday • 12:00 PM–1:30 PM Be The Change You Wish To See In The World: Teaching Careers At The Community College Level, Sponsored by Committee on Community Colleges

ranging from beginning to veteran instructors, who represent colleges in several different states, will share their experiences and have an in-depth Q&A regarding community college teaching as an academic career option.
Organizer: Celeste Atkins, Cochise College
Invited Panelists: Celeste Atkins, Cochise College; Alondo (A.C.) Campbell, Santa Ana College; Linda Rillorta, Mt. San Antonio College; David Hyde, South Puget Sound Community College; Elizabeth Bennett, Central New Mexico Community College

Organizer: Todd Migliaccio, CSU Sacramento
Invited Panelists: Aya Ida and Todd Migliaccio, CSU Sacramento; Christy Glass, Utah State; Amy J. Orr, Linfield College; Sally Raskoff, Los Angeles Valley College
Friday • 3:30 PM–5:00 PM And Now For Something Completely Different: How to Get a Job at a Community College, Sponsored by Committee on Community Colleges
Getting a job at a community college is very different from landing employment at a four year institution. This panel will examine the process of job acquisition at the community college level in four states (California, New Mexico, Utah and Arizona) and provide attendees with a number of hints and tips to assist in the job search and interview processes.
Organizer: Harry Mersmann, San Joaquin Delta College
Invited Panelists: Sharon Yee, Chandler Gilbert Community College; Dan Poole, Salt Lake Community College; Ami Mezahav, Flathead Valley Community College; Elizabeth Bennett, Central New Mexico Community College; Harry Mersmann, San Joaquin Delta College

Routes to Roots: Immigrant Home-Making in the Era of Fortified Borders
Pierrette Hondagneu-Sotelo, University of Southern California
This lecture will discuss the multiple ways in which diasporic and immigrant communities make "home" for themselves, even under conditions of hostility and ambivalence. Drawing mainly from a study of the Latino immigrant transformation of South L.A., but also referencing scholarship conducted outside of the United States, this presentation will draw attention to dynamics of race and racism, materiality, place and identities in the immigrant home-making process. This immigrant home-making framework is suggested as an alternative to the paradigms of assimilation, transnationalism, and mechanisms of exclusion.

Presidential Address and Awards Ceremony Teaching Sociology: The Precariousness of Academic Freedom
PresidentAmy Orr, Linfield College
Threats to academic freedom are not new. Scholars who wrote about academic freedom decades ago were hinting at some of the same issues that we face today. However, as time passes, the threats seem to grow stronger (largely as a consequence of the increasing corporatization of higher education). While some threats are overt, and tend to flare up at particular points in time, others are of a more covert nature that slowly erode the foundations of academic freedom. This talk focuses on a number of these threats (neoliberalism, contingency, political intolerance,…) and their relationship to sociology.

A Closing Note from the Executive Director
Thank you for attending PSA 2018! I hope that you found many sessions and presentations of interest to you.
Please watch your email for a post-conference survey and take a few minutes to give us feedback on what you enjoyed about the conference, and where PSA can improve.
PSA continues to thrive because of the dedication and hard work of many people. Although their work is largely invisible to PSA attendees, PSA’s officers and board members work throughout the year to make decisions for PSA and ensure its ongoing financial stability. Without them, PSA literally could not exist. Thank you to 2018 President Amy Orr and Vice President Wendy Ng, Treasurer Patricia Gwartney, and Secretary Tina Burdsall, as well as board members Karen Pyke, Michelle Camacho, Elaine Bell Kaplan, Kathy Kuipers, Vikas Gumbhir, Cynthia Siemsen, Judith Liu, Linda Henderson, Marcia Hernandez, Sharon Elise, and Amanda Admire for their service this year. You have been an amazing team to work with.
PSA also thrives because of the work of its elected and appointed committees, the Program Committee, the editorial team of Sociological Perspectives, and those who fulfill special tasks at the conference our student volunteers and folks who volunteer to be Presiders in sessions.
Lora Bristow, Executive Director, Pacific Sociological Association
Note: a few committees will meet in the Regency Boardroom, on the 16th floor; access is via the main guest elevators from the lobby.
