Dr. Chuck Green came to Hope in fall 1983 on a two-year appointment, teaching Social Psychology for David Myers while Myers was trying to figure out whether he would be any good at writing textbooks. Turns out, yes, he was very good, so two years became three, three years became four, and next thing Chuck knew, he was tenured.

查克在心理学系教研了10年。然后,他花了七年时间担任卡尔弗罗斯特社会科学研究中心的主任。During that time he was also quite involved in general education, which included developing a new curriculum, introducing the First Year Seminar course, etc.

From 1999–2013, Chuck directed the Phelps Scholars Program, an academic/residential opportunity for first-year students interested in issues of race and culture. Working with great colleagues to get that program up and going was extremely rewarding for him. He still teaches First Year Seminar with the Phelps Scholars, and is pleased to continue his involvement with the program in that way.

Currently Chuck is full-time in the psychology department, teaching Social Psychology and Race in America. He also teaches two companion courses with Race in America for students who want to explore the topic in greater depth: Race in Health and Healthcare, and Race in Christian Faith and Life.

AREAS OF INTEREST

恰克的专长是美国的种族问题。特别是,他试图对这个主题进行研究,并将其提供给更广泛的公众。尤其是美国白人,往往对种族在他们的历史和当代社会中所扮演的角色有一种有限的、扭曲的看法。如果不超越普通的白人(误解)观念,就很难理解种族及其影响。在他的课堂上,以及通过各种各样的方式,查克试图帮助人们了解正在发生的事情,并找到在他们的势力范围内为种族公正工作的方法。
