CDAS CAMPBELL DIVERSITY AWARENESS SURVEY
“The major factor in creating harmonious diversity
is awareness of bias.”
Following are several pictures of diverse groups of people. For each group, please indicate how comfortable you would be interacting with them in various ways, for example, working with them, going to a party with them, or having them as teachers for your children. Do not focus on the specific individuals in each group; instead consider each group as a whole in making your decision. Where age is a factor, assume you are roughly the same age as the people in the picture. For each group in each situation, use the following scale of responses:
= 1 - Very Uncomfortable = 2 - Uncomfortable
= 3 - Comfortable = 4 - Very Comfortable
This survey is for your self-education; it will be most useful if you give your first reaction, quickly and honestly. You may be asked to share what you have learned about yourself with others in small groups. In doing this, share your reactions as honestly as possible, but only as much as you feel comfortable with. Protect your own ego and your self-image.
“In a world of harmonious diversity, people from different groups will be
less apt to go to war with each other.”
These pictures came mainly from the author’s extensive collection of old postcards, showing groups of interesting people. The author would welcome other additions to his postcard collection.

Please write a short summary of what you have learned about your reactions to people who are different from you. Please plan to share this with a discussion group, as appropriate.
During the remainder of this conference, talk with other attendees about their reactions. The group pictures can be wonderful “conversation starters.” You might ask a colleague, “What was your reaction to (a specific group)?”
The purpose is to gain a better understanding about how those around you feel about diversity.
