Your Place

This photograph/collage depicts the diversity challenges one must overcome coming to UCSD. The campus itself promises that one will feel at home and find their rightful place on campus but does it actually accomplish what it promises? Is everyone truly taken into consideration on campus. Where is the Asian American resource center?It's true that coming here, I was glad to see the Raza Resource Centro but there are other minority groups who who need aid too. The puzzle pieces in the photograph represent how I feel like minority groups can fit in close together but they don't actually come together right away and so easily either. I think it takes time for each ethnic minority group to actually open up to other ethnic groups on campus.
