Document Summary

Every year more than half a million college students are targets of bias-driven slurs or physical assaults. Every day at least one hate crime occurs on a college campus. Every minute a college student sees or hears racist, sexist, homophobic, or otherwise biased words or images. Several fraternities & sororities threw a ghetto party, where white students dressed as urban. African americans, and a sorority held a slave auction as a fundraising event. I can"t walk into a bathroom without seeing something like fags should die". Gay student quoted in a college newspaper. I want you all to die, was sent to more than 40 faculty members with hispanic surnames. Someone used permanent markers to scrawl rape all asian bitches and other hate messages on campus walls. Plan for today: build a common vocabulary. Stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination: psychological roots of dislike, can we change, vocabulary. People often use the terms stereotype, prejudice, and discrimination synonymously.
