I guess that's what I wanted to know about. You say that stereotype threat is fallacious/biased reasoning. I attend a pretty liberal university, and the new students are all given a required reading over the summer. This year's book is Whistling Vivaldi: How Stereotypes Affect Us and What We Can Do, written by Claude Steele the Dean of Education at Stanford University.

Stereotype threat isn't just another biotruth, it's something that's extensively studied in the social sciences. The size of its effects are a matter of debate, but I don't see how stereotype threat could be based on fallacious/biased reasoning.
