Diversity Conference: Diversity Redefined
On Saturday, November 15, the MCC will be hosting the 2003 Diversity Conference at the Norris University Center. The Diversity Conference is an annual student-organized event that features workshops and a keynote speech and is preceded by Diversity Week. This year's workshops will focus on topics such as religious diversity, Iraq and democracy, leadership, service diversity, media, environmental racism, affirmative action, and LGBT support.

"Diversity Redefined" is the theme of this year's conference. Through this theme, the conference aims to explore the depths of diversity beyond current day standards and to breakdown assumptions and misconceptions so as to further the progress of diversity on campus. It is the mission of the Diversity Conference to reevaluate the standard issues of diversity and promote awareness of overlooked aspects of diversity via open dialogue and interaction.
