The video title really needs to reflect the discussed topic, which is racial diversity, not diversity as a whole. Many prospective students with disabilities or an LGBTQ+ identity also face challenges with getting accepted to an advanced education program, and those challenges may be very different from individuals belonging to a racial minority, however those subtopics are not examined in this presentation.
