Promoting Diversity in an Honors Curriculum
Abstract
This paper explores curriculum diversity at UIC Honors College from four perspectives: (1) range and types of courses that integrate multiple manifestations of diversity themes; (2) process of course solicitation that allows assembly of the best talents of diverse faculty scholarly expertise; (3) course instruction that benefits from and is tailored to the needs of diverse topics and student populations; and (4) additional efforts that sustain vibrant energy in maintaining a diverse environment for the Honors curriculum and beyond. Both qualitative and quantitative data are presented, together with explanations of how each is enriched by Chicago's unique environment.
