| FROM Tuck Admissions Blog: Tuck & Diversity |
I just finished my last exam for the Winter term. Yay!  Courses, learning, professors – everything and everyone has been awesome. It’s amazing to look back and see how much you learn in just 2 months. Equally exciting at this time is to look around and see so many students buzzing with enthusiasm about the exotic places they are travelling to over the Spring break. Before I hit the roads (/air?), I thought I will share something that has been close to my heart. Before you proceed further, just take a few moments to reflect upon what the word ‘Diversity’ means to you. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Just recently, all the attractive posters around campus prompted me to think about what diversity means for me. I first stumbled upon the thought that I personify diversity at Tuck through many different dimensions – as a female, married, brown person, South Asian, an engineer and more. For some time I comfortably convinced myself that I represented the minority. But after sleeping for a while on this thought, it dawned on me that diversity is a much broader concept. I realized that each and every individual around me personifies diversity – from my fellow students with diverse backgrounds to the security guard who drove me to Dick’s House the other day. Every individual has a unique story about him/her that will enrich your understanding of life, if only you are willing to observe, associate and listen. That is the most beautiful way of connecting with and understanding a person. Hence came my definition – “Diversity is about celebrating yourself and everyone around you.” I have experientially learnt that being inclusive is a choice. And this choice defines who you are and what you will become. In the past 6 months, every day at Tuck has been exceptional – I have been overwhelmed, made uncomfortable, and challenged. All these experiences have made my learning and the journey more meaningful. Every student I have chatted with, regardless of demographic differences, expressed a similar satisfaction with their experience at Tuck. Appreciating diversity requires collaboration as a natural way of living. We, at Tuck, are very adept at that. So, what do you think? |
