Abstract

Multicultural students in agriculture are changing and pioneering the future of the industry and fields. This presentation will discuss some data and qualitative feedback received from students in the Animal Science department regarding their experiences and feedback about how instructors could have a substantial impact on their learning and professional success. This conversation looks to encourage instructors to continue investing in multicultural students, learn some strategies on how they can be supportive, and create inclusive classrooms.
