Examples for class discussion
- Searching our library’s website I ran across an article about Rutgers University Library Model, according to diversity, states, “the narrow definition of diversity, i.e. race, gender, and national origin” is contrasted with a “wider range of issues reflecting a more holistic definition of diversity which included religion, sexual orientation, disabilities, and ... classicism and bias in the workplace.”
- Diversity can be defined many different ways. It is usually defined to what context it is found in. For instance, it could be defined by religion. In England, diversity may mean more Catholic worshippers, despite the main religion still being Anglican. In this example, diversity would be anything other than more Anglican worshippers. This is because England has an influx of this specific religion because of its heritage. In contrast, the United States woudl have a much broader definition religious diversity, due to the wealth of religions present within our borders. Even though Christian worshippers are the main worshipping group, we still have prominent groups of other religions such as Islam, Hindu, Buddhism, etc.
- A conflict has been created by mixing backgrounds; by creating diversity.
- Witnessing such conflicts or being a victim of them may cause a student to feel unsafe and may disable his ability to learn. For a student to receive a good education, he must be able to feel secure in his surroundings.
- Even though the population diversity, in numbers, is small, the course curriculum content is extremely “diverse,” also in numbers, in the sense that Penn State offers over 160 baccalaureate majors.
