| What community members are saying... |
"Embracing diversity is a sign of our richness and strength
as a community. As we strategically plan for our county's future,
appreciating and valuing diversity in all forms focuses our
energy on the positive: the abilities, and unique qualities and
perspectives that everyone brings to the table."
Laurie Gehrke,
Manitowoc County Extension Director |
"Silver Lake College believes diversity is integral to
the educational and developmental experience of all learners.
As a college and as part of the community, we need to be inclusive,
recognizing and valuing opportunities to integrate all dimensions
of diversity. As we respect and explore the many facets of the
human identity we can begin to recognize the strength of the
ideals that come from the statement 'Out of many, one'."
Dr. George Arnold,
Silver Lake College President |
"During my many years as a Diversity Practitioner, I have
witnessed a tremendous number of life changing outcomes within
corporations and within community settings that were all possible
because of the willingness of everyday people to dialogue about
diversity."
Heidi E. Moore,
Kohler Company |
