Diversity Program

We have to provide multiple opportunities for students to grow and learn. We need to be a culturally diverse school district that accepts everyone and encourages a pluralistic culture. We need to work together with our

For many young adults, college is a time of great discovery as it presents them with an incredibly diverse assortment of people with whom they may mingle with. However, the mentally ill are often excluded from these interactions. Due to numerous misconceptions about their condition and the ensuing stigma that this creates, college students with a psychiatric disorder are left to endure unnecessary shunning from their peers. Fortunately, some universities have taken it amongst themselves to prevent this injustice from occurring, a prime example of which is the New Diversity Initiative program.

In 1989, the AICPA recognized a need for not only ethnic diversity but also gender diversity. Stemming from the Upward Mobility of Women Task Force, the AICPA’s Women’s Initiatives Executive Committee (WEIC) was formed in order to promote opportunities within the accounting profession for women. The WEIC serves to raise awareness of the gap in progress of women in becoming leaders throughout the profession by providing

A diversity scholar is an academically minded student who promotes diversity and evolvement in campus and community activities. We came to Western Oregon University to further develop our education and experience a fully enriched college life. A diversity scholar exemplifies excellence in academia, shows leadership qualities through volunteering, successfully balances school and social life, supports diversity on campus, and actively participates with school sanctioned events.

1. When I first heard about this conference last year in the diversity club event, I thought of it as essentially a vacation in Atlanta. It sounded fun, but I wasn’t particularly interested in it. Still, I thought it might be worth checking out, so I decided to look online to see what its website said. What I found painted a picture very different from my first impression. It gave the impression of a legitimately powerful learning experience, which coupled with Ainsley’s testimony began to sound extremely worthwhile. I like to think of myself as a fairly culturally sensitive person, but I began to realize how little diversity I’ve been exposed to, growing up in New England. How much could I really understand cultures I had never even come

Are State Senate district 12, and State Assembly districts 24 and 25 racial gerrymanders prohibited by the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause with race as a predominant factor in redistricting?

For many years, Americans have held certain opinions concerning gender, sex, women, and sexual orientation. A definition of both gender and sex will be provided. The roles of women throughout American history will be discussed. When people think about masculinity and femininity, they have certain preconceived ideas. How these ideas contribute to the understanding gender, sex, and sexual orientation will be examined. Finally, the status of GLBT individuals will be explored. An increased understanding will be gained concerning these issues.

In my opinion a successful student doctor should have organizational skills, be able to cope with the rigor and pace of instructing materials, most of all developed critical thinking during their time attending a medical program. I believe that the Doctoral Diversity Program at John Hopkins Medical School will help me strengthen those areas before the start of my medical education. The Diversity Program provides research opportunities, Community health care exposure, professional training and personal growth through mentorship. The Doctoral Diversity Program I believe will help me stay on a current pace for medical school, which will help me be a competitive applicant. I hope to gain a head start on the level of critical thinking that medicine

Goal 1: Develop a comprehensive curriculum that is inclusive, reflects multicultural diversity, and promotes contributions by all races, creeds, and cultures

Taking time to volunteer at the many nonprofit organizations, homeless shelters, advocacy centers, philanthropic fundraisers, local schools and child care facilities in the inner city is not always at the forefront of young people’s minds while navigating through their college experiences. But, with a little push from student organizations, local nonprofits and passionate individuals, volunteerism and community change can start to take a front seat and become not just an opportunity, but also a priority in the lives of young people.

Based on the article, "Mindful Reflection as a Process for Developing Culturally Responsive Practices," prepare a 500-750-word reflective essay. Within your essay, address the following:

In life you have to give people second chances, no matter who they are, or what they may have done. You should look in your heart to give them the benefit of the doubt and hope that they will change. By allowing a second chance within oneself, then the people around that person could possibly give them a chance, and that could possibly result in making others want to work even harder to prove that they too can change. This is what I try to seek for in my halfway houses; The people that are trying to change for the better and not just so they can get out.This halfway house survives men from 18-50 . I believe that this age range would be perfect, so the guys that are older can teach the younger ones who are in the mid 20s to be more humble in life and try to keep out of trouble. This program would be a very diverse program with a different race. In this program I 'm expecting a  majority of the inmates to bring new changes in their lives that would benefit them

Did you know that 20 percent of children in the United States under eighteen years of age are hungry? Consider for a moment the amount of money that you as a college student spend in a single day on food alone. Did you know that 1.3 billion people worldwide live on less than one dollar a day? Have you ever volunteered your time to help the hungry? When some students think of volunteering, they focus on the benefits that it brings to their standing in a school organization or the status it earns them on their résumé rather than thinking about how important it is to help those less fortunate than they are.

Nevertheless, the common misconception linked to graduating College students is that they are well-rounded adults, who have done their time and are ready and able to enter the working force and go on with their lives. The fact of the matter is that not all recent college students are mature and knowledgeable on their community and the world at large. “Teens who volunteer increase their knowledge of the world and the problems that face it” (“Youths”). This quote is not only applicable to teens, but college students as well; unfortunately, college students become isolated from the rest of the world while they are in their course of study and do not make time to give back to the community that helped them become who they are.
