First sentence: While we have all heard claims about the growing numbers of diverse and underrepresented persons attending colleges and universities, it is now a fact of life on many campuses that persons from diverse backgrounds are attending college in larger numbers than ever before (Bennett, 2001; Carter &amp; Wilson, 1996; National Center for Education Statistics, 1993, 2002; Talbot, 1996a).
