Hi, my name is Campbell White. I am a current senior, class of 2023, at Washington and Lee University in Lexington, VA. I will hold a Bachelor of Arts degree, with a major in Sociology and minors in Data Science and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies upon graduation. I’m originally from Norfolk, VA.
I decided to add a Data Science minor rather late during my time at W&L. In the middle of my second semester junior year my adviser asked if I had ever considered the minor. I admitted that I had, but that I thought sociology and data science to be somewhat incompatible. However, I soon leanred how naive I had been. There is immense potential and use for data science skills in the sociological field and this realization has completely changed how I view my future. I hope my work provides illuminating analyses on topics that are situated at the intersection of sociology, women and gender studies, and data science.
