Diversity Cookies

 My residence hall put on an event called Diversity Cookies.  Residents were encouraged to come decorate a cookie whilst sharing fun facts about yourself and getting to know other residents better.  The experience was really interesting and I learned a lot about my peers, their cultures, their past times, and even their diets.  I think it really aided in my journey as a learner by reminding me not to have preconceived notions of people before I get to know them.  I think as leaders at Ohio State, we all need to carry that wisdom with us.  Every person we meet knows something that we do not and we all need to work together to succeed.  Even if that success is something as small as a finished cookie.
