Laurendeau finds mutual benefit in supervisory role

In this episode of the 45th anniversary series, sociology professor Dr. Jason Laurendeau and new alumna Rachel Shields (MA 12' ) discuss Laurendeau's positive approach to working with both undergraduate and graduate students.

As a master's supervisor, Laurendeau finds his work with students is not a one-way street. While also playing the role of mentor and instructor, Laurendeau says he likes the opportunity he gets to learn from his students and apply their thoughts on sociological concepts to his research work.

Check out the video below to hear how this relationship is a win-win for both the professor and student.
