A diverse student body gathers at Waseda University.
But let us ask — do you feel that diversity matters to you?
Is there ever a moment when diversity feels like a word meant only for someone else?
We would like each and every one of you to ”Re:think” — take a fresh look at the way you’ve been thinking up to this point. about diversity.
With that in mind, SDC will organize a variety of events over the next three months under the theme of Diversity Month.
Taking a moment to pause and reflect—
that alone might create an opportunity to think more about yourself in relation to diversity.
This fall, come join us to “Re:think Diversity”
