Garrett Adams · Answer 1

The correct answer is A) Though curriculum may recognize and celebrate diversity, most professors and administrators are white and heterosexual.

Explanation:

Even if administrators and professors are committed to fight inequality, the fact that most of them are white and heterosexual might have unintended consequences in the school. People hold beliefs that can come from their enviroment.

The enviroment in which a white person grows up, and lives, is usually very different from the enviroment in which an african american grows up for example. The experiences are very different. This might generate lack or empathy or lack of understanding with minority student's experiencies and preoccupations.
