Scarlet Session: Pat Carroll

Join us for our next On-Campus Scarlet Session as we kick off the first session for spring semester. 

Pat Carroll, professor of psychology, will first discuss his work on how and when people abandon or embrace dreams (possible selves) in response to social feedback. Then, we will transition to review more recent work on the consequences of those changes in possible selves for broader changes in self-doubt, self-esteem, and well-being. 

Wednesday, January 14, 2026 12:40-1:10 p.m. 

HCF Conference Room 106 in the Webb
