50th Anniversary Student Spotlight- Marcela Sanchez
Meet Marcela Sanchez, U of U CSBS 2020 graduate! "I have loved my time in the CSBS; I have learned a lot from my professors and fellow students, not only about the field of Sociology, but also about life. I am a first generation college student and the road to school wasn’t always easy, but I am grateful for the opportunity I have had to study in a compelling and fascinating field. It has given me the opportunity to learn about how change can be brought about in society and how I as an individual can play a role in causing that change. I have acquired a grounded, contextual understanding that allows me to, among many things, explore the most pressing problems of our time and understand the societal, historical forces at work behind these social issues. To me, this perspective is invaluable if we are to come up with compassionate solutions that take into account our shared humanity and get to the root of these issues. My time in the CSBS has given the tools I need to confront these issues on a personal and professional level."
