Explain Why Cultural Diversity Is Important In A College Education I come from a small town. Hannibal‚ MO‚ the boyhood home of Mark Twain‚ is described its claim to fame as "a sleepy town drowsing." Most surely he has never been more accurate‚ for this small enchanted river town has never awakened total equality.

I believe the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences at Duke is an excellent match for me. I believe college should not be merely a gateway to the work force; it should educate the student in a variety of subjects and prepare him or her for the range of challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in life.
