If you missed the first presentation of the Office of Institutional Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion's Anti-Racism Summer Series, catch up on the Providence College Podcast.
Dr. Saaid Mendoza of the Department of Psychology also serves as faculty-in-residence in the Office of Institutional Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and director of the Social Perception & Attitudes Lab. He discusses the differences between explicit and implicit forms of bias, underlying mechanisms that drive implicit biases, how these biases operate in our social world, and steps we can take to help combat their seemingly automatic effects. Dr. Maia Bailey, associate professor of biology, moderates the presentation.
The Providence College Podcast features interviews with interesting members of the Friar Family. These in-depth conversations with PC students, Dominicans, faculty, staff, and alumni provide a rich look into the lives of noteworthy Friars. Occasionally we will also bring you on-campus lectures and presentations. Go Friars!
