Biography
Prof. Helen B. Marrow is a sociologist of migration, race and ethnicity, social class, health, and inequality and social policy. Her research projects explore Latin Americans' incorporation trajectories and racial and ethnic identities in the United States and Europe, the impact of immigration on social life and race relations in the rural American South, variation in public bureaucracies' approaches to unauthorized immigration (especially in education, law enforcement, and health care), the relationship between immigrant-host contact, threat, trust, and civic engagement, perceptions of discrimination, and Americans' emigration aspirations. At Tufts University, she regularly teaches Introduction to Sociology and Qualitative Research Methods, plus a range of courses related to immigration, race/ethnicity, and Latino sociology.
