Coming from a different culture, I feel the need to represent and include everyone's diverse backgrounds on campus. College of the Canyons' students, staff, and faculty come from all over the world, so diversity at College of the Canyons is an important factor. Providing inclusion for the many different backgrounds through a leadership position on campus is crucial. I will be pursuing diversity and equity by hosting events and programs for the different backgrounds that are a part of College of the Canyons, its my passion that I have implemented and will continue to implement at College Of The Canyons.
