Does Stereotype Threat Affect Faculty? A Conversation over Wine, Cheese, and Chocolate. (Event Flyer)
Much attention to stereotype threat has been focused on its effect on students, on test scores and other measures of performance. We, as faculty members, as teachers and researchers, may also be affected by stereotype threat.
Come and join a conversation about how we and our colleagues are impacted by implicit and explicit stereotypes, in the classrooms and in our careers. We will share stories and experiences to understand what we are facing at LMU, to discuss how we can address it and what support structures may be needed, both on an individual and an institutional basis.
Refreshments will be provided, please RSVP to teachers@lmu.edu or call (310) 338-5866.

This event is part of Lily Khadjavi's Faculty Associate project on Increasing Diversity: Addressing Stereotype Threat.
