Diversity means representation. Having people in all positions so there can be an apparent feeling of acceptance and inclusion. Tulane has taught me that diversity encompasses more than just gender and race, but also many other aspects of a person’s life. At Tulane I feel most a part of the black and first generation student communities. On campus I am involved with the Black Student Union, Student Learning Assistants, and Housing and Residence Life. I have felt most supported on campus by the Office of Multicultural Affairs—it has been somewhat of a safe haven to me. If I ever feel as if there is nowhere to go or no one to look to, I know there is always supportive people there.
