In another survey amongst college presidents the results showed that college presidents believe it is more valuable for students on campuses to be exposed to several different types of speech whether offensive or biased compared to filtering certain types of speech.]]> 2018-10-31 08:21:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298867662 kreid31 https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298867710 Throughout my research of this website were the assumptions many educators create when it comes to a culturally diverse classroom. One assumption that stuck out to me was some teachers believe understanding diversity does not play a role in learning. When in result creating a culturally diverse platform in the classroom allows students to be exposed to a variety of backgrounds which in result can help the student develop critical thinking skills and grasp a better understanding of their fellow man.

Another assumption from teachers about maintaining a culturally diverse classroom was the lack of ability to identify what exactly exemplifies a diverse student. Many teachers may fail to educate themselves on exactly what makes a student diverse.]]> 2018-10-31 08:22:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298867710 kreid31 https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298878104 The president of the Asian-American Women's Association at Harvard speaks out on her connection and alienation from other students on campus.

The President of the university quickly took the poster down and apologized and sent condolences to those impacted.]]> 2018-10-31 09:14:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298878207 kreid31 https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298883042 While researching through the several articles one particularly stood out to me. This article spoke about several college student's who either currently attend or attended Harvard University were mistreated due to their race.

This article interested me because the passion the non-profit membership group "Students for Fair Admissions" fight and believe with to help those who are treated wrong because of their race, religion, or socio-economical background is nothing short of inspirational.]]> 2018-10-31 09:38:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298883042 kreid31 https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298886523 In my search through the Angelo State Library, I found a book titled "New Dimensions in Community Well-Being" authored by Craig Talmage and Richard Knopf. This book discusses the three tools needed to build a positive and successful community environment.]]> 2018-10-31 09:54:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298886523 kreid31 https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298890337 After searching online for an article related to this topic, I came across this journal from The College of St. Scholastica. This article discusses the benefits of diversity towards college campuses and students all together. This article also gives us the most accurate description of what exactly it means to be diverse.]]> 2018-10-31 10:10:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298890337 kreid31 https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298892589 The first step into understanding Diversity and Inclusion as a whole is to thoroughly know exactly defines it. Diversity and Inclusion can be describes through age, sex, race, ethnicity, religion, socio-economical statuses and more. This topic is one that everyone needs to be educated on because it impacts our everyday life. The beauty of this world is the ability to connect with someone from a completely different culture or background because it is from that relationship we can grow. The more Educators know about this subject the more successful they can become.

Many Legal and Ethical Issues can stem from this topic. Alienation in your own community or campus is one that is a current issue. Failure to acknowledge ones beliefs or to believe one is above the other is another current issue. Hate and prejudice negatively impacts others as well. Many employers and even colleges have been caught basing applicants approval strictly on race, sex, or class and this is a huge moral red flag.

As a Director of Diversity and Inclusion on a campus this is an area I am passionate to be involved in. To oversee this division of Student Affairs gives me the opportunity to work with students who I can connect with and encourage to be themselves. To be working alongside student clubs and organizations who are proud of their race, sex, religion etc. is a career path I use my platform to develop and grow future leaders.]]> 2018-10-31 10:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kreid31/c8qt6qakxqvi/wish/298892589
