You've probably noticed that many colleges are talking about multiculturalism. We want you to know that Smith College, a recognized leader in liberal arts education for women, has done more than "talk" about multiculturalism. Smith has made a strong commitment to cultural diversity within its community.
Bright young women from around the United States and 50 other countries representing almost every racial, ethnic, political, social, economic, religious and cultural background come to Smith. They contribute their voices and life experiences to the richness of the campus community.
The director multicultural affairs, in collaboration with several other Smith College administrative and academic departments, coordinates a range of activities that encourages an exploration of one's identity, culture and heritage plus those of others. Tremendous importance is placed on the interests and needs of students who identify themselves as students of color -- African American, Asian Pacific American, Latina, Native American, and multiracial descent -- beginning with their orientation as first-year students. The result is a more inclusive learning community where differences are valued and respected.
If you want an excellent liberal arts education on a campus that truly values diversity, consider Smith.
