Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Increasing cultural competency of staff and faculty can help them understand and address their own biases as well as create a more inclusive and welcoming environment for all students. Housing students separately by race would only reinforce segregation and perpetuate discrimination. Mentoring white students about race is important, but it should not be done as a way to place the burden of addressing discrimination solely on minority students. Discontinuing affirmative action programs could actually increase discrimination and limit opportunities for historically marginalized groups.
