Minority Mentor Lecture Series (MMLS)
Help showcase minority scholarship in the fields of Sociology and Criminology.

About this Project

The Minority Mentor Lecture Series (MMLS) was created in 2008 by the Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice at the University of Delaware to address the disproportionate representation of minority scholars in the fields of Criminology and Sociology. This series aims to showcase the important work of minority scholars in these fields, provide mentoring and network opportunities for minority students and cultivate professional development for all graduate students. MMLS includes a guest lecture for the entire UD and broader Delaware community, a reception for our department and sponsors, mentorship for students of color and a professional development workshop for all graduate students. The event is student-led and student-run.

Donor Impact: How your support makes a difference!

Your donation will help us support the mission of MMLS in showcasing the important scholarship of minority scholars and providing professional development and mentorship for graduate students. Recognizing the ongoing value of this event for both undergraduate and graduate students in the Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice, as well as the broader UD campus, your contribution would be instrumental in supporting the event. Specifically, your contribution would enable us to maintain equity in the event's structure and ensure a fair honorarium for our guest speaker.  

MMLS is student-led and student-run by the Sociology and Criminal Justice Graduate Student Council. It depends on support from other departments and organizations. Your contributions are vital to help sustain the event. Thank you for your generosity!
