My question, are we so anti-diverse at Biola as far as ethnicity goes? Seriously, if we aren't against it then why bother saying we aren't for it? I thought diversity was the norm.
At 9:38 PM, Possum said...: No, we're not anti-diverse at Biola. It's a matter of emphasis. Biola's historical focus is to emphasize Biblical education to impact culture. These people seem to want diversity as an end-in-itself.
