Racial and ethnic diversity is increasing on campus. A March 10, 2008, article in the Washington Post projects that minority populations on U.S. college and university campuses will grow from 30 percent three years ago to 37 percent by 2015.
InterVarsity has multiethnic chapters and ethnic specific chapters on many campuses. Currently 29 percent of our active students define themselves as minority or multiethnic. Ethnic reconciliation and justice are long held core values. But InterVarsity’s campus staff members are noticing that student attitudes on race are also changing.
