Diversity Informs, Educates and Inspires

“I think the campus does a great job highlighting and hosting mulitcultural events. We have an incredibly diverse campus and each one of the events hosted certainly shows a new aspect of the student body.”

Jake Alleruzzo
Senior News Editor

 

“A multicultural campus is really important to create a microcosmic experience of what the world is like. The world is not one ethinicity, gender or categorization of living. College is supposed to emulate the real world and a diverse culture is part of our now more globalized community.”

Brian Laughran
Editor-in-Chief

 

“Well, I think, unless you have been living under a rock or in Pleasantville circa 1950, we have all been exposed to some level of different cultures, ethnicites and races. In my experience, SXU has transported me into completely different environment that I did not have in high school where I can engage with people of various backgrounds in a way that makes certain stereotypes fall away.”

“Having such a multicultural campus has enhanced my college experience in so many ways. Not only have I been able to expand my knowledge through academics, but I have also expanded and altered my worldview through interacting with other students. Our differences make this campus so much more rich and lively.”

-Bridget Goedke

“Diversity means a lot more to us than we think. Through learning about all of the things that make us different and unique, we are able to discover that we are much more similar to each other than we perceive. Therefore, this diversity forms a bond between all human beings that unites all cultures. Because, as humans, we are more than the groups and cultures we are born into.”
