McCall Receives Guggenheim Grant

Professor Patty McCall in the sociology department has received a grant from the Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation that will fund an 18-month study examining violent crime in the European Union.

The cross-national study will evaluate the influences of social and economic factors on homicide at the subnational level. The findings will provide policymakers with information on the relationship between welfare policies and violent crime.
