About 100 sociology scholars from more than a dozen schools gathered on campus for the Alabama-Mississippi Sociological Association's annual meeting on Thursday and Friday.

Covering a wide range of topics, the meeting focused this year on disparities in demographics, economics, literacy, transportation and agriculture.
