We precede the \u201cPublications, Awards, and Other Accomplishments\u201d section of the newsletter with a new section on Alumni Accomplishments. If you graduated with a degree from the WSU Department of Sociology and have an accomplishment that relates to the education you received from the department that you would like to share in the newsletter, please send us an email to sociology.news@wsu.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this issue, we highlight the work of accomplished alum Candace Wellman<\/strong> (BA Soc, 1968).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Candace Wellman\u2019s forthcoming book with WSU Press will be published in Spring, 2023. Man of Treacherous Charm: Territorial Justice Edmund C. Fitzhugh<\/em> follows her two previous books with the Press: Peace Weavers: Uniting the Salish Coast through Cross-cultural Marriages <\/em>(2017) and Interwoven Lives: Indigenous Mothers of Salish Coast Communities <\/em>(2019). Both books won national awards from Women Writing the West. The Washington State Historical Society chose both Peace Weavers<\/em> and Interwoven Lives<\/em> for their 2020 Women of Washington bookshelf, a collection of their favorite books and publications about the state\u2019s women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wellman graduated with distinction in 1968, followed by three semesters of Sociology graduate work emphasizing socialization. For a year, she taught \u201cAmerican Courtship and Marriage\u201d before leaving campus with her newly graduated engineer husband and daughters. Over the following years and many moves, she earned a history\/education degree at Western Washington University, did genealogy, and was a volunteer research assistant at the Washington State Archives branch in Bellingham for 15 years. Her various experiences and skills coalesced in a research and writing project that has spanned over 20 years and resulted in the three books and several articles, public presentations, and workshops about researching \u201cunknowable\u201d people. Her Sociology background infuses her writing of biography and is readily apparent to alert readers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
