Action #6 Volunteer in or Join an Organization or Get Involved in a Group Comprised of People Who Are Significantly Different Than You

There are many organizations here on Campus that grant many opportunities to learn about different people. One organization that I choose to get involved with is the Black Student Union. I attended their Red Carpet Event this past Saturday here on campus. I went with a big group of girls and danced the night away to R&B and Hip-Hop music. I am also a part of the Campus Activities Council here on campus and we have decided to team up with BSU for some of the on-campus events this year.

Another group that I've decided to get involved with this year is the Latin Student Union. They have weekly salsa lessons in the Java Junction and I attend them almost every Sunday. Dancing is something that I really enjoy and it is fun to learn a style that I am not familiar with. I've also gained a new love for Latin music because of my various friends involved in LSU or that have been on SST in Spanish speaking countries.

Goshen has allowed me to learn about different cultures through many clubs, organizations, and just by the people I come encounter with. This will allow to be a teacher that is aware of the different cultures around me and how to react in those situations. It will also help me grow as a person in this very diverse world.
