Diversity On Campus Diversity on Campus Richard J. Light’s book “Making the Most of College,” can be very beneficial to the freshman student body coming fresh out of high school. This book discusses many issues that first year college students might go through, such as good study skills, interaction with faculty, and diversity on campus. Since all of which Light discusses in his book I’ve already heard before, reading about diversity really caught my attention. After reading this, a question popped into my mind; “What is the impact, educationally and personally, on students from all ethnic backgrounds of attending college with fellow students from diverse backgrounds'” Since this question applied to me in every way possible, I will use myself, and some of Light’s quotes, to explain how it has impacted on my life thus far. Since I grew up in a town were the majority of the population was Hispanic and/or white, I was never really exposed to the black community. I did have a few co-workers who were black, but I never really developed a friendship with them. Little did I know that this was a major lack of cultural understanding on my part and it eventually caught students, diversity, light, way, very, school, college, really, high, cultures, about, university, positive, negative, learn, know, issues, great, diverse, student, since, question, people, out, never, light’s, learning, i’m, it’s, experience, ethnic, differences, culturally, colleges, campus
