Engaging Diversity: More Important Than Ever

From the creator

Patricia Gurin http://www-personal.umich.edu/~pgurin/, professor emerita of psychology and women’s studies at the University of Michigan, discusses her work as a social psychologist which has focused on the role of social identity in political attitudes and behavior, motivation and cognition in achievement settings, and the role of social structure in intergroup relations. She presents her research findings published in her book Dialogue Across Difference: Practice, Theory, and Research on Intergroup Dialogue, https://www.russellsage.org/publications/dialogue-across-difference which addresses the potential of intergroup dialogue to improve relations across race and gender. This presentation was part of the RICSRE Faculty Seminar Series which features speakers from a wide variety of disciplines in the humanities, social sciences, education, law, business, and medicine throughout the academic year. The event took place on November 21, 2013 at Margaret Jacks Hall, Stanford University. For more information, visit http://ccsre.stanford.edu.
