What is Diversity?
What exactly does diversity mean to your particular GLO? I've heard people talk about the diversity in their organization but is it referring to the members ethnicity, religion, background? What exactly makes your particular GLO diverse?
At my chapter, we have ladies that are Caucasian, Latina, African-American, Indian, Native American. We are Catholic, Jewish, Mormon, Pentecostal, Methodist, Lutheran, Baptist, Hindu, and oddly enough, Jehovah's Witness. I say oddly b/c I was under the impression that Jehovah's Witnesses did not participate in groups like GLO's. The ladies of my chapter come from all over California, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, India, etc. Some have families with means & have parents who pay their educations as well as the financials for sorority. Others (like me) get by with student loans, grants, scholarships, and working part-time to make ends meet. I guess that's what makes us diverse.
