Abstract
This paper contains a descriptive analysis of the institutions represented at the 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, and 1974 annual meetings of the Midwest Sociological Society. Frequency and rates of participation, regional and Canadian representation, involvement of nonacademic organizations are considered. The results of the analysis indicated that the modal participants each year were the graduate sociology departments— that most of these departments were located in American universities and colleges, that departments with the highest participation offered the doctorate in sociology and were from the Midwest, that participation and attendance is influenced by meeting site, and that there has been a steady increase (except for 1970 and 1971) in the number of participants. The need for additional study of the sociology convention is stressed and specific directives for research are provided.
