Abstract	This study explored the degree of change, if any, in student perceptions of race and the American criminal justice system from completing an undergraduate or foundation year graduate social welfare policy class that incorporated Alexander's understanding of the new racial caste system that has evolved as a product of mass incarceration since 1980. As expected, the results indicate a significant decline in positive regard toward the criminal justice system as well as a significant decline in positive regard for Whites by student respondents, both demonstrating a moderate effect size. Contrary to our expectations, there was no change overall in the degree of positive regard for Blacks. Qualitative results, prima facie, appear to support these conclusions. (ERIC).
