College is a fabulously productive time in one's life; it is an opportunity for individual growth and maturation. Undergrads continue to realize what they hope to do and develop the needed skills to be a prosperous member of society. But learning is not confined to a classroom - the campus dialogue, the life lesson gained from an old instructor, the exposure to a different interpretation of the situation. As such, a diverse student experience tremendously improves what one gains from the time spent in university.
