Abstract

ABSTRACT With the growing diversity of the population in the United States, it is becoming increasingly important to teach students about issues related to diversity. This is especially true in the community college where a large, and diverse, number of students enter postsecondary education. This study employed a descriptive design of the catalogs of 145 rural, suburban, and urban community colleges with varied enrollments throughout the United States to determine how many courses that address diversity were offered, including the department offering the course and the specific focus. Findings revealed that colleges classified as small and medium were less likely to offer these courses, as were colleges located in rural areas and towns and those located in New England, the middle section of the United States, and the South.
