The University of ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ at Boulder will host a campus forum on "Being an Ally: Breaking Down Stereotypes" on Thursday, Sept. 20, at 7:30 p.m. in Eaton Humanities Building room B150.
According to organizers, the purpose of the forum is to provide an opportunity for students, staff and faculty to discuss the events of the last week and to identify ways that the community can support campus members who have been affected by negative stereotyping and acts of recrimination.
Participants include Professor Frederick Denny of religious studies, a specialist in Middle Eastern culture and Islamic religion, and Tiffany Ito, assistant professor of psychology and the supervising faculty member in the department's stereotyping and prejudice laboratory.
The forum is sponsored by the university's Building Community Campaign, the divisions of Student Affairs and Academic Affairs, and the Office of Cultural Programs.
