Gender and Ethnic Fair

"My students are 80% non-white minority students. The selections in [Career Choices and Possibilities] make them feel OK about themselves."

"The first year, my biggest success was when students of different races found common ground and learned a language to talk to each other."

"The [young women] discovered who they are and established future goals, including opportunities to enable them to support themselves and their future families...[those] who never dreamed of higher education saw possibilities and opportunities. Many.were excited about 'going to college' and spoke of the decision with bright eyes."

"Two of our students are seriously considering non-traditional vocations. Several other students expressed that they really enjoyed the course because it gave them skills to become mature, self-sufficient women."

"This is a wonderful approach to teaching tolerance in an applied manner."
