CRAZY LIKE US The Globalization of the American Psyche
Date: Thursday, May 5th
Time: 5:15 pm
Location: Sobrato B – just a short walk down the Alameda from Loyola right behind the Fine Arts Building
For any questions, please contact Elizabeth Heuser at eheuser@scu.edu.
Q&A and refreshments to follow!
Over the past 30 years, Americans have been industriously exporting our ideas about how to treat mental illness and how to achieve mental health. In CRAZY LIKE US: The Globalization of the American Psyche, acclaimed journalist Ethan Watters reveals that in teaching the rest of the world to think like us, we have been, for better and worse, homogenizing the way the world experiences afflictions.
Traveling from Hong Kong to Sri Lanka to Zanzibar to Japan, Watters witnesses firsthand that as we sell our drugs and popularize our mental health treatments, attempting to modernize other culture’s understanding of a mental illness, we often end up steamrolling indigenous expressions of malady and replacing them with our own.
The untold story of globalization, CRAZY LIKE US urges us to consider the loss of diversity in the world’s concept of mental illness in the same way we worry about the loss of biological diversity. We are driving into extinction approaches to mental health and illness that could be helping us. We erase this cultural diversity at our own peril.

On Saturday, April 23, 2011, over fifty Intern Teachers from the San Francisco Bay Area attended a workshop at Santa Clara University, hosted by the Department of Education and organized by Bob Michels from SCU and Ruth Beauchamp from San Jose State University. This professional development workshop was presented by Grace Dearborn, and it was focused on the work of Rick Smith and his book on Conscious Classroom Management—Unlocking the Secrets of Great Teaching.
Attendees learned about making invisible management skills visible, how to hold your ground in ways that invite student cooperation, motivating reluctant learners, strategies that result in reduced anxiety, and a fresher, more positive approach to teaching. A variety of practical tips that are vital for classroom survival were also introduced. Comments after the workshop indicated that the participant intern teachers appreciated how valuable the information and perspectives presented are to help them become more effective and efficient teachers.
