A culturally aware education is necessary for everyone who's going to participate intelligently and responsibly in a multicultural society that surrounds us, rather than a mythological and sheltered subculture not truly representative of our nation as a whole. A university in pursuit of academic excellence will not succeed unless it draws upon the rich diversity of human experiences and expressions. The great river of knowledge loses its richness if diverse intellectual and cultural streams do not flow into it.
