There is evidence of college efforts to address multiculturalism and diversity in the curriculum, but lack of a specific, pooled base of information on the subject is deterring greater strides in this area. This national study of 220 community college chief academic officers investigated (a) the level of activity in community colleges in incorporating multiculturalism/diversity into the curriculum, (b) staff development activities in place to aid faculty in learning about multiculturalism /diversity and incorporating it into the curriculum, (c) perceived barriers to diversifying the curriculum, and (d) future plans for infusing multiculturalism/diversity into the curriculum. Study results suggest that community colleges are active in addressing the issue of multiculturalism; yet huge numbers of community college students are not exposed to multiculturalism/diversity issues and content. Absence of knowledge and lack of a high priority for multiculturalism are barriers inhibiting development. Infusion of multiculturalism and diversity into the existing curriculum now seems to be the method of choice for community colleges in addressing these issues. It is this method that should help community colleges' transition to the higher levels of multicultural education. |
