The Business School is Diverse
Not that it's really an excuse, but writing about the MBA program is tough knowing that not more than a handful of business students will ever read or relate to what I'm saying.
By nature, law students have a lot in common. They start out with similar aspirations, similar GPA's, similar backgrounds, similar career goals, similar test scores, and undergo a very similar, grueling law school experience. That's not really the case at the B-School.
As one example, Baylor business school is about 36% international. Besides the United States, students come from Nigeria, Zimbabwe, India, China, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Germany, Canada, Honduras, Jamaica and Mexico; considering the school has approximately 90 people, that is a lot of diversity.
Thankfully the experience has taught me to be more culturally sensitive.
Unlike the producers of the below video* - trying to update the World on the improved condition of the once paralyzed Kevin Everett - I wouldn't say, "roll the footage of the black guy in the wheel chair that starts to move" because I know that not all black guys in wheel chairs that start to move are alike. So I have that going for me.

I find this statement funny...
I think the law school is up to a whopping 4 black students. That's diversity, Texas style.
For the law school, diversity is having white boys from Plano, the Woodlands, AND Round Rock.
