Chad is a fifth-year PhD candidate working with Dr. Wilkins. He is broadly interested in the attitudes and beliefs that high status groups hold toward members of low status groups. Some of Chad’s early efforts to understand this topic have focused on examining the conflation of religious, political, and social identities and on conflict between social groups where membership in one group is not mutually exclusive with membership in the other.
