Diversity, Globalization and the University: How Does it Affect You?

The world that we live in is continuously changing. The Internet, for instance, has made it possible for people of  different backgrounds to obtain and share information at the click of button.

But, how does this affect you? Growing up in Missouri, many of us think that diversity and globalization will never affect us, but this is not true. We will have to face this shrinking world sooner or later. How will you face it?
