Tuesday’s Montgomery Advertiser had an interesting story on school diversity. The story, originally from USA Today, describes Brooklyn Prospect Charter School, where a diverse student body may show the beginning of a trend to increase diversity in the country’s schools.

In the corporate world, diversity is a no-brainer. Executives with “varied cultural backgrounds and experiences help broaden strategic perspectives,” according to a recent study by McKinsey on diversity among top teams.
