Robert Smith (2008 Distinguished Book Award,
from the Ame
rican Sociological Association)

Our colleague Robert Smith of Baruch College has received the 2008 Distinguished Book Award,
from the American Sociological Association, for his book Mexican New York.
It is a fascinating book and drew on a decade’s worth of fieldwork in New York and Mexico.
It is wonderful that the book has received such recognition.

Our distinguished faculty group on immigration goes from strength to strength.

Enhorabuena! Rob.
