Sociology has been called the queen of the social sciences. If one thinks of
History as a social science [nomothetic rather than idiographic] it's
conceivable to make it a concentration. Of course I have a PhD in sociology

Then again, maybe it's a FASA fragup. This IS the company that developed a
rule for levitation spells that assumes average people weigh more than 300#.
