In order to fulfill this mission, it is necessary to have students from diverse backgrounds represented on campus. However, having students on campus is only one aspect of D&I work. Understanding the make-up of the college and the surrounding city, it is necessary to ensure these students have the support to be retained through graduation. In this effort, I propose the creation of a three part program that will assist in this effort. This plan will involve

Large portions of the minority youth in the Midwest grow up in low-income communities where risk factors reduce their chances to attend college and excel academically. Project IMPACT is a multicultural academic program created by former Associate Provost of Diversity, Dr. Myra Gordon, to help minority recruitment and retention. Over 4,000 minority students have participated in special campus visits during high school, and a lot of them have decided to attend the university. Each academic school year, the Office of Diversity at Kansas State University hosts “College for a Day”, sponsored by Cargill and ConocoPhillips.

Succeeding in college is generally a difficult task for students who do not have a plan on what they want to do and start off in the wrong places. Where a student starts off in college and who helps the students in their journey have huge impacts on a student's likeliness to succeed or fail. At Skagit Valley College placement, advising, and academic planning have a huge impact in a student's success because it helps students start in the right classes, gives them many resources, and helps them make a plan to graduate on time.

Although named East Los Angeles College(ELAC), ELAC is actually located in Monterey Park, California. Monterey Park is located 30 miles east of Downtown Los Angeles, and has the largest concentration of Chinese Americans in the US. I was raised and born in Monterey Park and when I graduated high school, I enrolled at the local community college. Two years of working as a tutor at the ELAC Writing Center taught me the importance of literature and teaching literature. As a tutor, I learned the necessity to analyze, assess, and appeal to not only the student but their learning needs as well. Most importantly, I learned that before a teacher can impact their students they must understand the student’s environment.

Fraternities and Sororities are some of the elite groups on a college campus. Fraternities and Sororities consist of men or women that share common goals and aspirations.

Research has shown that students that graduate from high school and join the workforce are not prepared for a full time job (Salam, 2015).

The WIOA focuses on meeting workforce training goals and having Americans ready to work to fill available jobs that meet those Americans qualifications (Galuszka, 2015). Americans have to have some type of training for all jobs and high school curriculum is not currently meeting that need (Fitzgerald, 2003 and Galuszka, 2015).
