The General Social Survey reposted this
“When I was in college, I always knew about the GSS. Imagine you are a young kid going out and seeing the moon and hoping that one day you could take a spaceship and get up there. It was a dream all those years...and here I am serving as director now of the GSS.” In the return of the #EquityCorps video series, The General Social Survey director René Bautista, Ph.D. talks to Michelle M Johns, PhD, MPH from NORC’s Center on Equity Research about what it means to him to lead one of the largest longitudinal surveys on the attitudes, opinions, and behaviors of the American public. Watch the video to see the whole interview!
