Flyer with event details

Greetings Faculty, Staff and Students,

Please join us for the next event from the JEDI-WeST Speaker Series, taking place next month:

Breaking the Habit of Bias (4-hour workshop)
This workshop is led by Patricia Devine, PhD, the Kenneth and Mamie Clark Professor of Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison who leads the Prejudice and Intergroup Relations Lab.

Dr. Devine will harness scientific research on stereotyping, prejudice, and bias to provide evidence-based ways to reduce bias, raising awareness of why bias persists despite an individual’s rejection of prejudiced ideas. The prejudice habit breaking intervention was the first, and remains the only intervention that has been shown experimentally to produce long-term changes in bias.
