Scholars studying diversity in students pursuing higher education stress the need for diversity among the faculty and staff of institutions offering such education.It is seen as a way of creating a more welcoming and supportive environment for minorities and of enhancing education for all students.Accordingly, they argue that hiring more Native American faculty and staff is a potential way to help others in the university to become more aware of and responsive to the challenges faced by some Native American students, thereby leading to more effective and culturally competent programs.However, this argument ignores a crucial ground reality.Even though many proponents of the idea discuss variations in cultural orientations among indigenous people, there seems to be an assumption that Native American professors and students share common values and hence teachers of Native American ethnicity are thought to have more insight than their counterparts from other ethnicities into Native American students.But the reality is that Native Americans form an extremely heterogeneous population.Students and teachers of Native American origin can differ in a variety of ways, such as tribal background and level of connection to their culture, and therefore making blanket assumptions about the cultural identity of Native American people who become faculty is just as inappropriate as it is to make stereotypical assumptions about Native American people in general.Accordingly, before any key changes are implemented, it would be reasonable to probe how Native American people who have achieved an extensive background in higher education differ culturally from their tribal communities of origin.
Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A) The composition of native American faculty is similar to that of the native Americans in general.
B) Diversity among the faculty is being demanded by scholars who are studying diversity in students of America.
C) Many people who advocate the idea of diversity among faculty are aware of the heterogeneity among native Americans, but they tend to ignore it.
D) Faculty having an extensive background in higher education differ culturally from their tribal communities of origin.
E) Diversity in faculty and staff of institutions will create cultural barriers among students and teachers.
