When asked, "Is it important to have access to a library with a collection of books that explore a variety of different viewpoints - why/why not?" here is what several sophomores said . . . 1/x
"It's important to see other people's perspectives even if we don't agree with them, because they open our eyes up to things that occur in the world or just different ways of viewing the same thing." 8/x
"Yes, I do think it's helpful. It helps students empathize and see the world from other's points of view. Empathy is a key step in the D-school process, and a big part of STEM culture." 6/x
"Definitely, since it allows variety, and if all our information and what we are exposed to is the same, we'll never see different sides to issues and develop full thoughts and ideas." 4/x
November is Native American Heritage Month, a time to honor and celebrate the significant contributions of the first Americans to our country. In our library, we do this by lifting up Indigenous voices and stories. #KCSLMSKNOWvember
