My school is best known for its diversity. At the top of the Polynesian triangle in the Pacific Ocean, it represents over seventy two different countries, which reaches far more than one hundred cultures. This is a recipe perfect for secondary education. Students go to university to broaden their knowledge and stretch their viewpoints. At a campus that has such rich cultures embodies this idea. In order to best increase your knowledge you should be exposed to as many ways of life as possible. At Brigham Young University- Hawaii this idea is best represented.
