Psychedelics Education and the Persistent Taboo on Alternative Ways of Knowing

3 credits · Undergraduate

This introductory course examines a) how American educational institutions and broader cultures have approached or avoided the study of psychedelics in the past 50 years; b) how this approach (or lack thereof) has limited psychedelics education and risk reduction efforts that would benefit students with critical knowledge and tools; and c) how comprehensive knowledge and appropriate tools might support the navigation of complex, real-world contexts safely.
