Diversity Issues In The Athletic Department
In this world, people interact with one another. People develop and exchange a
diverse set of identities. Their identities are informed by gender, race ethnicity, culture,
sexual orientation, religion, their varying physical and mental abilities, class, age,
education, profession, and regional identity. Each person carries social values and brings
multiple identities to the organizations and communities of which they are a part of.

people whom they may have felt were a threat to them, or to simply hurt a minority group
to feel superior.
