Rather than retreat, however, many members of the Association for Humanist
Sociology have continued to ask the question ‘‘sociology for whom’’ by finding
new ways of teaching sociology to ‘‘solve problems and improve lives,’’ thereby renewing the pledge of bringing humans back in (Ballard 2010). Rather than
capitulate to the current system that rewards teachers and students for acquiescing
to the tacit agreement of reproducing the status quo, our members cast our
students as partners in creating a more just and equitable society. We embrace a
sociology that places practices over content (Rader 1979). Through service
learning, innovative experiential colearning projects, and taking teaching outside
of the classroom, we incorporate humanistic values into teaching and thus
ensure that at least some students are able to assume responsibility for their
education.
