13 Diversity in the syllabus
Why do we need diversity?  The failure to increase diversity means that we are failing to draw fully on the pool of talent ‘The built environment reflects our culture and vice-versa. If our buildings, spaces and places continue to be designed by a relatively homogenous group of people, what message does that send about our culture?’ (Anthony, 2001) ‘A lack of diversity in teaching and learning methods; in learning resources and in role models contributes to problems of retention and erosion amongst women and BME architecture students in UK Universities’ (CABE 2004)  students who are taught and staff who teach within a framework that diversity is core to the curriculum and culture generally emerge much more aware of a wider cultural world, different experiences and knowledge. Those who are in a minority may feel that rather than having to pass through some mysterious ‘rites of passage’ as Elsie Owusu put it, find that their experience and knowledge is as equally validated as the majority students

14 I mean I’m an external examiner, I’m not going to mention the school that I was examining yesterday, and the curricular I see in front of me is not that different from one that probably would have operated in 1950, and yet looking out at the classroom alone, the student body is totally different, and the faculty are beginning to change, so why isn’t the subject matter changing. That for me is the issue. Lesley Lokko: Architecture, globalisation and diversity –a conversation June 2004 at the RSA
