This is a short note about Schur positivity. We introduce Schur polynomials and explain how they appear in the representation theory of the general linear group. We end with a new result of the author with F. Bergeron and V. Reiner that gives the probability that a homogeneous symmetric polynomial with positive coefficients is Schur positive.
