Diversity

Or this (following the posts below)...

If we're going to value diversity (on campuses, for instance), why not take it seriously, and foster intellectual, economic, & geographic diversity? I'd opine that these factors would do more to create diversity than skin color would. For instance...

Where's the greater difference in life-experience: between a white girl and a black guy from the same suburb & the same income bracket, or a " rich girl" (of whatever race) from the suburb and another from poor rural America? I say there's probably more "diversity" between the second two than the first pair.
