While membership of the society is open to everyone, the majority of its 1300 members (2/3)[2] are from the Midwest.[1]
The society publishes the scholarly journal, The Sociological Quarterly; holds an annual meeting each spring; supports fellowship, grant, and award programs; and supports research by its members.[2]
