Description

This course is an introduction to the psychological study of stereotyping and prejudice. The course will consider how stereotypes develop, how they are applied to others and with what consequences, and how they change. The course will also examine the roots of prejudice, and will consider the broad spectrum of what it means to be prejudiced, from unconscious forms to modern day hate groups.
