Walter-Burkat

Adjunct Professor of Sociology

B.A. in Anthropology and Sociology/French, Minor in Mandarin Chinese; M.A. in the Social Sciences (Sociocultural Anthropology); NJ Standard Teaching Certificate (French and Social Studies)

Phi Beta Kappa, Pi Delta Phi (The National French Honor Society)

During my undergraduate career at Lafayette College, I majored in Anthropology/Sociology and French. I also managed to complete a minor in Mandarin Chinese. During my time at Lafayette, I had the opportunity to work on a number of anthropological/sociological inquiries, including, but not limited to: racial formations of Muslims in 21st century Denmark; social memories of Danish Jews during World War II; media constructions of women in American crime dramas; ethnographic research of Easton, Pennsylvania’s long-lost “Syrian Town”; sociolinguistic identities of Senegalese diaspora members in the United States.      At the University of Chicago, I completed the Master of Arts Program in the Social Sciences (MAPSS), where I did more specialized work on West African ethnographies (especially those based in the People’s Republic of China), focusing on linguistic analyses, migration studies, and economic/human development investigations. In my Master’s thesis, I explored the effects of Westernized neoliberalism on racial constructions of African migrant traders and Chinese internal migrants living in various Chinese cities (e.g. Guangzhou; Hong Kong; Shanghai; Yiwu).     Currently, I am a middle school French teacher in Readington Township, NJ, adjunct professor of Sociology at Centenary University, as well as a content contributor for UITAC Publishing. In my free time, I love to read, exercise (especially yoga!), cook, travel, and play the guitar/sing.
