Mastering Diversity and Gaining a Competitive Advantage on University Campuses
Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to examine the salient classroom and university interactions between students and instructors of different cultural backgrounds and to offer insight as to how educators and other leaders on campus might maximize effectiveness with diverse groups, gaining a competitive advantage. Inspired by the lived experiences of an African-American graduate student in a department staffed predominately of Caucasian-American faculty members, this chapter calls instructors and other leaders at educational institutions to cultivate healthy professional relationships with students and to create environments conducive to learning by employing pedagogical strategies which acknowledge the unique learning styles of learners.
