What I liked about the diversity activity we did in class was that we got to see right away everyone’s results to the question. What I didn’t like was how it was not anonymous and that we had to choose one side over another when you felt like you could argue both sides of the statement. It was interesting to hear everyone’s reasoning for choosing that particular side.
I feel as if the diversity here at Mizzou is wide. Everyone comes from a different place and background. Even if a group of students came from the same high school, there would still be diversity within that group. I feel that the least talked about concern with diversity has to be the language barrier. Communication is a big part of living here at the University of Missouri. I understand that a lot of students are international students, but it makes it extremely difficult to work on projects with them when you cannot understand what they are saying, and they cannot understand what you are trying to say. I am a very patient person when i work in groups like these, however some people are not, and being like that makes it difficult for everyone in the group to complete the task.
