Journal Of Social Issues
   Sheri R. Levy, Editor, 2010-2013

We have many eye-opening issues recently in print and at the publishers.  I hope you had a chance to read the third issue of 2011 (Scaling the Higher Education Pyramid: Research Addressing Academic and Career Success of Minorities and Women in Science and Engineering, Issue Editors: Moin Syed & Martin Chemers) and the fourth issue of 2011 (Towards a Social Psychology of Globalization, Issue Editors: Chi-yue Chiu, Peter Cries, Carlos Torelli, & Shirley Cheng).  The first issue of 2012 is Systems of Privilege: Intersections, Awareness, & Applications (Issue Editors, Kim Case & Jon Iuzzini). I am very much looking forward to seeing this issue in print and seeing its impact on future work in this area.
