RACE AND ROOMIES

Interracial Roommates Can Reduce Prejudice, Campus Studies Find - NYTimes.com:

Interesting study but what is up with this?

"Several studies have shown that living with a roommate of a different race changes students’ attitudes. One, from the University of California at Los Angeles, generally found decreased prejudice among students with different-race roommates — but those who roomed with Asian-Americans, the group that scored the highest on measures of prejudice, became more prejudiced themselves."

I think we need former UC Berkeley student housing coordinator, Junichi, to weigh in on this.
