			 from multiple perspectives and different life experiences. These experiences
			 provide for different voices in the professional development and work of the
			 education profession. The greater range of cultural backgrounds and experiences
			 among faculty and candidates enhances understanding of cultural competency,
			 inclusion and equity for all students in the classroom.

			 Evaluation of Curriculum and Experiences;
