          Summary
              Puerto Rico has high levels of income inequality, however, we know little about the causes of this inequality. Sociologist Elizabeth Fussell will examine how skin color, bilingualism, U.S mainland migration, and migrant social networks are associated with social and economic inequality in Puerto Rico. She will develop and administer surveys for her study.
