Undergraduate / "Diversity is not only about race" - a contribution to the school. Intro-question [5]
Participating In a vibrant community of different values, cultures, and personalities is part of modern human growth. The acceptation of one another is part of life. Diversity is not all about the color of one's skin, but, also, the perception of one's values and personality. As I think of diversity and what it means to me, I think of equality that is seen and should be seen by every eye. In any society, variety makes a rich culture because of the variety in and about it. .As Maya Angelou quoted "We all should know that diversity makes for a rich tapestry, and we must understand that all the threads of the tapestry are equal in value no matter what their color." Diversity is not only about race but, also, life experiences and beliefs. As a growing individual, I have been through various experiences. Some which have made me stronger and others that have made me wiser. I would contribute to the effervescent Rutgers community because of the activities I take part in, the values I hold, and because of the experiences I have been through.
