Questions About Diversity

• What do we mean when we talk about diversity in college?

  Largely speaking, diversity is the word we use to describe a mixture of individuals and ideas, and the traditions, belief cultures and systems that come with them. When most students seek diversity on a college campus, what they are seeking are opportunities to express themselves and find community with others who believe the same way, as well as opportunities to learn from those from different backgrounds and cultures.

• Is Beloit attracting and supporting learners from all backgrounds?

  Schools with otherwise excellent ethnic and location diversity still may not be diverse when it comes to other factors, such as income levels. Get a better idea of how Beloit supports low-income students by visiting the Financial Aid Page.

• Is Diversity Important to Beloit?

  Diversity can be promoted by the university in several ways. First, institutions should be making an effort to hire a varied faculty to engage students. But the school should also be doing the best they can to encourage substantial interaction between people from different backgrounds. This prevents faculty and students from self-segregating and promotes positive connections.
