Diversity is something that needs to be discussed all the time.
It does not matte r at what time. Every day of the year is a celebration for one group or the other. The whole idea of diversity is understanding and growth - a yearlong effort, not just something that can be handled in a week. Whether people agree on the aim or direction of Diversity Days, that is another question. For me, working as a part of Diversity Days and also being a student of color, I find it outrageous that I have to address the limitations of discussing diversity rather than being glad that it is being discussed so openly throughout the campus thr ough so many different organizations.
