The article touches upon ethnic stereotypes problem. The subject of the contemplation is the Arab stereotype in view of polling research conducted among 100 students of the University of Lodz (the Chamber of Journalism and Social Communication). The research results show that the knowledge of Arabic society is poor and partial. The students mainly paid attention to the basic attributes like looks, characteristic facial features, peculiar clothing, and religious differences. There were also many negative opinions and antipathy arising from lack of familiarity with this culture, which is relatively remote to the Poles in geographical sense.
