This award will provide equipment which will allow the Sociology                Department to build upon a successful National Science Foundation               LOCI grant.  The curriculum implemented with the LOCI funds                     integrated research methods into course content, and these                      changes brought about a large increase in the number of students                using the department's computer laboratory.  Funds from this                    award will be used to purchase personal computers and statistical               software which will complement the existing mainframe terminals                 and software in use in the laboratory.  In addition, funds will                 be used for the purchase of computer hardware which will allow                  the department to extend the use of the LOCI pedagogy, which has                proven so successful with their majors, to non-majors.  The                     grantee institution is matching this NSF award with funds from                  non-Federal sources.
