What the college says

Why does the crime rate always seem to be rising? Is the nuclear family the norm? Why do people join cults? Why do some people fail and others succeed in the education system? Why do so many people live in poverty while others live in the lap of luxury?If you have ever asked yourself any of these questions, would like to debate such issues or are intrigued to know the answers, then Sociology will appeal to you.
