BARBARA F. PRINCE, PH.D.
Welcome to My Site
ABOUT
I am an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Lebanon Valley College. I received my Ph.D. in Sociology from Bowling Green State University, my MA in Sociology from West Virginia University, and my BA in Sociology/Anthropology from Elizabethtown College. I am the next deputy editor of Teaching Sociology. For fun I enjoy musicals, making ceramics, hanging with my cats, and visiting Frank Lloyd Wright buildings. I have been a volunteer at Fallingwater for the past 5 seasons.
