*Students should consult with the Biology Chair to determine whether AP Biology will satisfy the BY 140 and BY 160 requirements. Minor in Biology, Behavior, and Society (BiBS) A diverse group of disciplines attempt to document and explain the origins and functions of human cognition, social behavior, and social organization: anthropology, biology, economics, history, psychology, and sociology each include a disciplinary focus on the origins and current consequences of individual and group behavior and social outcomes. However, among disciplines - and even within disciplines - there is disagreement about the relative importance of genes, natural environment, individual rational-choice, and sociocultural-construction on individual and group behavior, cultures, and social institutions. Historical views have ranged from strong biopsychological determinism, to environmental determinism & individual rational choice, to strong sociocultural determinism. Views on the origins and current functions of behavior, culture, and society can and often do affect social policy; extreme views have provided the intellectual rationale for eugenics, racism, sexism, imperialism, laissez-faire capitalism, and collectivization and ‘cultural revolution’. On a positive note, interdisciplinary progress at understanding the origins and functions of human behavior and human cultures & societies has contributed to progressive reforms in the areas of mental health, public health, laws and criminal justice, education, intercultural understanding, and programs to provide economic and social opportunity for the underprivileged. Views on questions of ‘human nature’ have tended to become polarized between the ‘biological’ (biology, evolutionary psychology, biological anthropology) and the ‘social science’ (social psychology, cultural anthropology, history, sociology) poles. 235
