Diversity at MSU- Overview

Michigan State University’s student’s and staff that were selected to be interviewed made it clear that MSU is perfectly fine, however, a little help is needed.

            Each person interviewed came to the conclusion that MSU is not the problem. The problem is people’s comfortability levels. People automatically feel comfortable around people they are similar too, hence predominantly black organizations and predominantly Asian organizations.

            Each interviewee felt as if there are a ton of things that we could do as a student body to break the separation.

            “I feel to expand the diversity here on campus would be to not make events seem tailored towards one group and actually make them tailored toward the whole student body,” said Joshua Ogundu, Nigerian Student.

            “We need to advertise and push multicultural programs more towards everybody and give incentives to participate in those programs,” Said Husain Alhaddah, Kuwaiti student.
