About the Presentation
Dr. Bader will use his paper, "The Fragmented Evolution of Racial Integration since the Civil Rights Movement" in Sociological Science to discuss the process of taking a dissertation article to publication, the need to revise around other published work, and experiences with publishing in multiple disciplines. Dr. Bader will also touch on how to deal with finding an unexpected result, publishing a finding contrary to received wisdom, and handling media requests.
About the Speaker

Dr. Bader is an associate professor of sociology and policy at American University where he is the Associate Director of the Metropolitan Policy Center and Director of the DC Area Survey. He is an investigator with the Built Environment and Health project.
