***THIS EVENT IS AT CAPACITY***

Please join us on December 4th for our autumn quarter Faculty Research Fellows Chautauqua. This event will feature 2019-2020 fellow Jennifer Eberhardt (Psychology) speaking about her recent book Biased: Uncovering the Hidden Prejudice That Shapes What We See, Think, and Do.

You don’t have to be racist to be biased. Unconscious bias can be at work without ourselves realizing it, and even when we genuinely wish to treat all people equally, ingrained stereotypes can infect our visual perception, attention, memory, and behavior. This has an impact on education, employment, housing, and criminal justice. In Biased, Jennifer Eberhardt offers us insights into the dilemma and a path forward. ...more about her book at CCSRE.

We look forward to seeing you there!
