Subject: Forward syllabus to EPSY students?


Hi Benedict!

I've attached the draft syllabus for my seminar on Atrocities next term, which is open to both undergraduate Psych Majors and Minors and grad students.

Could you send this around to your department lists, in case any of your grads or undergrads are interested?

Thanks!

Holly A.


Here's a short blurb for the email:

PSY 407/507 Seminar on Atrocities
Tuesdays, 2-3:50.  For 2 or 3 credits (3 credits includes final project, 2 credits weekly reflection paper only)
Overview: We will cover war, genocide and other mass killings and mayhem, torture, and slavery, looking at behavior, attitudes, norms, social dynamics, and cultural-historical contexts.

Framework:  Archaeological, anthropological, and historical evidence suggests that behaviors we now (fortunately) consider a departure from normal, sane behavior (at least in peacetime) used to be commonplace and were not considered (or, apparently, require) psychopathology.  Together, we will think about the implications of historical and cultural setting and context on the prevalence of atrocious behavior and the psychological experience of coping with its effects.
NOTE: Although Psychology Major/Minor status is the standard prerequisite for undergrads, I'm open to admitting students from other majors -- just email me at harrow at uoregon.edu<mailto:harrow at uoregon.edu> and tell me what your background is
Draft Syllabus attached.  Let me know if you have any questions....
