N2  - "These essays guide teachers to understanding and acknowledging the complexities of today's college students and offer real world solutions. With the varied approaches and purposes of the chapters, diversity -- much like in the real world -- here is broadly defined and not neatly categorized.All of the contributors are from San Diego State University, a place whose work on linked communities is well known. These diverse contributors have written about their own lives, work, and experiences inside the classroom."--Publisher description
