TWC and Interacting With Diverse Populations
2010-2016 Graduates
Interacting With People of Di"erent Backgrounds
TWC vs. Graduates Nationally
TWC participants experienced more diversity during their time at TWC than did
graduates nationally at their undergraduate institutions. Nearly seven in 10 TWC
participants strongly agree that they interacted with people of different
backgrounds on a regular basis while attending TWC. This rate surpasses the
experience of graduates nationally and that of graduates of public and private
institutions by more than 20 percentage points.
Further, among TWC participants, strongly agreeing that they often interacted
with people of different backgrounds is one of the strongest drivers of
participants believing that their TWC experience prepared them to succeed in the
job market and in the workplace. Strongly agreeing to this experience is also a
strong predictor of being extremely likely to recommend TWC to family, friends or
colleagues.
