While being a nice presentable college this can bring many challenges for students, staff and new potential students.
Dressing in nice clothes can be a challenge for certain students who can not afford the higher priced clothing. In past studies it is shown that when we see something nice and high end we want it but when we see the price tag our confidence lowers and depression could possibly appear. Colleges who take what they wear seriously seem up-tight and hard to get through. Unlike other colleges who seem more laid back will probably have a higher application rate than that of a “uptight” college.
Keeping diversity in school is important is allows students to learn about different cultures and understand what they truly meant. Letting the students wear what they want and make the Ad look like a real normal day on the college campus it would attract more students.With diversity in the schools it could build a bridge to new learning opportunities, new jobs , and new ways of teaching information. The Ad gives a sense of warmth with how the students dress in pastel colors and the dresses. With that being said it helps make the reader feel happy with the bright colors and sunshine.
LR being a private school limits the number of applicants from outside states since tuition is much higher than the in-state tuition. Going back on diversity this can limit the different races and cultures since most states has their own individual numbers of different race and cultures. For example the colleges in New York City would have many different cultures and a wide range of races because of the population and its a major city.
In conclusion this Ad presents many different challenges/questions from is this a good school with diversity , does it give fair opportunities etc. This Ad presents a sense of high class and large amounts of money.
