Vignettes: Meet the New Faculty, Fall 2026
“I’m most excited to explore psychological science with Middlebury students in the classroom as a way to better understand the social worlds we inhabit. I’m also looking forward to collaborating with students on research about intergroup relations and social change. The beautiful mountains and fall colors are a wonderful bonus.”
Nadia Vossoughi, assistant professor of psychology, is an intergroup relations researcher who studies the processes that contribute to and the consequences of intergroup inequality, as well as the formation of alliances that challenge existing systems and lead to collective action.
