Abstract

This study aims to investigate the prevalence of bias and stigma towards East Asian professors in student evaluations from teaching (SETs) from RateMyProfessors.com. We predict that East Asian Professors will receive lower ratings in terms of clarity and helpfulness in comparison to White Professors from the same school.
