Describe the students at your school. Diversity is the most popular word here. Although there are also problems with the administration not adequately supporting the diverse student body, the school is working hard to change that, with the new Multicultural Resource Center opening this semester. 108 Likes Like This Answer Already Liked This Answer Thank you, this item will be reviewed.
