For the Social Justice Action Project, Britnee and I interviewed college students in the Northeast region who revealed their views on the Black Lives Matter Movement, racial injustice, and racial profiling. We had wanted to inform people of what the Black Lives Matter Movement stood for and tackle some of the myths and misconceptions of what the organization represented. In the process, the interviewees have expressed their feelings of how today’s society is blinded by irrational thinking and biased beliefs. This project have made us realize that people often blame the movement of being inconsiderate to all lives matter, relating the movement to the “armed and dangerous” Black Panthers, and the never-ending issues of police-to-black killings.

Currently in the University of Missouri there are hundreds of black students protesting over what they believe is right. The university of Missouri has shown some sketchy behavior towards their students of color, which is causing racial tensions on campus. This sparked students into action; they have been protesting incidents that they believe were not handled correctly. These students took it in their own hands to speak out on the social injustice they have noticed in their school. It shows how university students are working with each other to work for the same cause that can benefit the whole school. The students are leading with integrity because they are fighting for something they believe for. They are speaking up for what they want to

This study seeks to add to the knowledge base pertaining to the role of spirituality and religion in the educational experiences and outcomes of African American (male) students (Jett, 2010). It is important to have values of any kind that mean something personally for an individual including spirituality and religion, this can help guide young adult male further into completion of a college degree. Although the four A.A. men in the study are spiritually grounded, they do not share the same religious affiliations or denominations (Jett, 2010).

The survey was administered on February 20, 2017. The survey was sent to 146 African American males who were graduates of Morehead State University. The emails and names of the participants were provided by Morehead State University’s Development Office. There were 10 questions that were asked of the participants and the survey was available for participants to complete over a three week period of time. Three of the questions were related to demographics such as if they were from Kentucky or outside of the state of Kentucky. The participants also provided their GPA when they graduated, and the length of time that it took them to complete their degrees. An email was sent to 146 participants stating the purpose of the survey. Students

Arizona State University has been deemed one of the most diverse universities because their ethnic diversity is described as above average. However, according to the racial demographics, more than half of the students at this university are Caucasian. In my opinion, providing a setting for students that is culturally diverse is one of the most important aspects of a college campus. While Arizona State University has somewhat diverse campuses, it seems as if minorities are outnumbered. Being an African American student of ASU has inspired me to want to be a part of projects and events that advocate for African Americans. More specifically, being an African American woman has been a huge inspiration. It has inspired me because I have heard

In today 's world where the population, especially of the United States, is growing gloriously diverse, institutions of higher education must also reflect this aspect in their student body. The purpose of colleges and universities is to provide students with the education and experience they need to succeed after graduating as well as expand their thoughts and perspectives. Thus, they must create and maintain a similar environment in which students will live and work in the future. Although diversity has been emphasized as a priority for many schools, socioeconomic diversity is often disregarded. However, socioeconomic diversity plays an important role in developing the perspectives and minds of students. Thus, it is essential for the admission offices, especially of prestigious universities like the University of Pennsylvania, to recruit and admit more economically disadvantaged students as well as for the schools to meet the needs of and maintain those students.

When children are put into educational facilities, they get a chance to connect and surround themselves with others of the same age group. Schools can also have significant influence on a person’s individuality as well as peer groups, which influence a student’s academic integrity greatly. A student will not perform well no matter what the case is, if there is negative influence from his peers and their school environment. They affect a person’s attitude, personality in a positive or negative manner.
