Assuming that a person going to community college can't afford to go to a four-year college is an example of ) a generalization. b) discrimination. O c) a stereotype. O d) tolerance.

Stereotype

Explanation:

First let's look at the definition of the answers

Generalization: a general statement or concept obtained by inference from specific cases

Discrimination: the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people or things, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex

Stereotype: a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing

It's not discrimination because there is no unjust treatment. Generalizations and stereotypes are similar (and, in fact, a cultural generalization can become a stereotype if it is definitively applied to individual members of the group), but this would be a stereotype because we assuming the actions of a specific person, not a group.

If I said 'Most people attend community college because it's cheaper,' that would be a generalization.

If I said, 'Suzy is attending community college because it's cheaper,' without any context or factual evidence, that would be a stereotype.
