One of the key supporting elements of my thesis derives from the students and staff members directly involved in the diverse environment. Getting feedback from the active participants in the campus life allow us to have a better understanding of their perception of diversity, different from their previous experiences. Interacting with people from various ethnic groups increase our knowledge base and enrich our perspective of the world. Diversity expands worldliness, enhances social development and prepares students for future career success. It also enables us to think creatively as it expands our capacity for viewing issues on multiple angles instead of one.
Many college professors claim that they love working with young adults, that they love teaching and doing research, that they love the benefits that they receive or that they love their vacation time. When a person has a career that they believe to be fulfilling, and that they derive meaning from, they are able to create a life for themselves that gives them control over their
There is a positive culture of learning and development that is celebrated by merits, certificates, displays and praise from teaching staff. School trips are used to help pupils to work together and increase team work and bonding. School clubs are varied and encourage pupils to further their interests in other areas. The school has an inclusive environment and positively reflects the importance of diversity, every effort is made to ensure that all pupils can be involved in all areas of school life and other cultures are celebrated. The aims or vision of a school are often seen in the school literature and are set by the head teacher in collaboration with the staff, parents and community.
Although both authors prove strong points it is obvious that whether your choice is college or trade school, as long as you apply yourself you will be guaranteed future success. “The individual benefits that college graduates enjoy, including high levels of savings, increased personal/professional mobility, improved quality of life for their offspring, better consumer decision making, and more hobbies and leisure activities” (Porter, 494). Porter is explaining that a college educated individual will have a life full of endless opportunities, and a strong set of morals. A college degree is valued in our society, and we are led to believe it’s a staple for our success socially and economical. Attending college can boost your confidence giving you a piece of mind knowing you have a solid educational background.

CWPA, NCTE, and NWP claim in “Framework for Success in Postsecondary Writing,” that “Habits of mind refers to ways of approaching learning that are both intellectual and practical and that will support students’ success in a variety of fields and disciplines” (122). At the Recreation Center, responsibility and persistence are habits of the mind that most students apply. Persistence, which the authors describes, is the “ability to sustain interest in and attention to short and long-term projects,” that pushes these students to come back throughout their education, regardless of how high their workload has piled up (122). When approaching college, students find it much more difficult to schedule exercising while balancing out their college life. There are exams to study for, deadlines to meet, and expectations to live up to.
The College will have created a niche as the university-of-choice for all programs offered. These programs will have a culturally diverse faculty, staff and student body, and the curricula in these programs will be state-of-the-art, fully staffed, and sufficient in kind and number to meet the needs of its clientele. The College's fully accredited programs will receive exemplary status on all pertinent performance reports. Assessment systems will ensure quality program development which, in turn, will have resulted in high levels of authentic student learning. The programs will have integrated technology including distance learning and web-based courses.

According to Theoharis (2009), a good leader has a multitude of skills that creates a positive impact in students’ achievements. They range from supporting various programs that will serve the needs of diverse students, to facilitating professional development for their staff
The students also become able to work on individual goals while also participating in the classroom community with their peers. Another beneficial quality includes the fact that each of the parents can now feel including in their education and the activities of their neighborhood schools. One of the most important qualities of this program is that the students that were once excluding into self-contained classrooms or were homebound can now develop friendships with a wide variety of other children with their own individual wants, needs and abilities. One last reason that inclusion is beneficial is that inclusion positively convinces both the school and the community to appreciate the diversity provided by the inclusion
