The Facts Are Alarming:

Studying sociology
books icon

  • 57% of Americans feel lonely — with 1 in 3 young adults isolated “most of the time.”

  • Trust in institutions has collapsed — Less than 20% of Americans trust Congress or mainstream media.

  • Critical thinking is disappearing — over-reliance on AI and social media weakens our ability to think deeply.

  • Social science education is vanishing — $168B in proposed education cuts, including a 55% reduction to the National Science Foundation.

    That’s why Sociology Lab exists: to turn confusion into clarity and isolation into connection.

Sociology is a tool for understanding how people, power, and social groups interact and why they sometimes don't. It helps you make sense of the confusing, divided world around you.
