The CWCS is "the only center in the U.S. devoted to the study of working-class life and culture. The CWCS creates social spaces for civic and academic conversations on working-class life and culture and its intersections with other identities and serves as a clearinghouse for information on working-class culture, issues, and pedagogy." The web site includes information about working-class studies as a field of study; information on courses, research, and programs at YSU; a bibliography on working-class studies; and an annotated list of links to related web sites.
