Who Attends ASC?:
When you go to the Admissions page there is an option on the side bar labeled, “High School Students”. When you click on it, you will go to a page with information for applicants in high school. on the right side of the page there is a link that says “view stats and numbers from our most recent class”. This links to a PDF page with the student demographics. According to this document, “students come from 9 countries and 32 U.S. states and territories.

Also, 61% are students of color and 9% are international. This shows a large amount of diversity in the student body. The fact that access to this information is promoted on the page for prospective students, implies that this type of diversity is encouraged at Agnes Scott College.
Diverse Cultural Exposure:
On the home page, in the slide show, there is picture that links to information about “global learning”. This slide show is the first thing that is visible when logging onto the site. This marks its significance and the photos in the slide show must be important as well. This makes me assume that the global learning program is important to Agnes Scott. There is also a page on the website with information about the Center for Global Diversity and Inclusion. The page links to multiple pages, located in the sidebar, for more information about the different programs that are provided there and some of the policies at the college created to encourage diversity. This is an example of Agnes Scott’s promotion of diversity in race, culture, gender, sexual orientation, and religion, through its website.
