Prof. Robert Friedrich

The Fall 2012 Williams Magazine included an In Memoriam tribute to Robert Friedrich:

Friedrichs, professor of sociology, emeritus, was the first to teach courses in that field at Williams. He spent more than 20 years at the college and served as chair of the department of sociology and anthropology. He was particularly interested in the sociology of religionand of science and in the societies of Asia. His 1972 book A Sociology of Sociology won the American Sociological Association’s coveted Sorokin Award. Read his obituary at https://bit.ly/Friedrichs.
