[Dr. Sithole retired from the university in May, 2001, and has returned to live in her home country of South Africa.]

I received my B.A.S.W. from the University of Zululand in South Africa before continuing my graduate studies in the United States. I received my M.S.W. from Washington University in St. Louis, and a Ph.D. in Sociology, also from Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri.

At UW-Waukesha I taught Race and Ethnic Minority Groups; Marriage and the Family; Introduction to Social Psychology; Introduction to Sociology; and Social Problems. I published "Family: The Functionalist Versus Conflict Theory Views," in the Survey of Social Research: Sociology; and, "Prejudice and Discrimination: Merton's Paradigm."

My professional research interests include comparative analysis of families; health care services and illnesses among Black South Africans; South African political, economic, social and cultural changes, and South African women.
