Deaf college students' attitudes toward a variety of issues related to racial/ethnic diversity were surveyed by contacting all racial/ethnic minority deaf students and a random sample of Caucasian deaf students attending the National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID), Rochester Institute of Technology; 38% completed the survey. Although racial/ethnic groups similarly perceived NTID's commitment and efforts related to diversity, they differed significantly on some items related to campus climate and role models. Furthermore, the racial/ethnic minority groups differed from each other in their perceptions of campus comfort level, racial conflict, friendship patterns, and availability of role models. Educational satisfaction was positively correlated with campus comfort level; both correlated negatively with perception of discrimination and racial conflict. Qualitative data analyses supported quantitative data analyses and provided rich detail that facilitated interpretation of deaf students' experiences related to racial/ethnic diversity.
通过联系所有种族/族裔少数群体的失聪学生以及罗切斯特理工学院国家聋人技术学院（NTID）的白种失聪学生随机样本，对失聪大学生对各种与种族/族裔多样性相关问题的态度进行了调查；38%的学生完成了调查。尽管不同种族/族裔群体对NTID在多样性方面的承诺和努力有相似的认知，但在一些与校园氛围和榜样相关的项目上存在显著差异。此外，不同种族/族裔少数群体在对校园舒适度、种族冲突、友谊模式和榜样可得性的认知上也存在差异。教育满意度与校园舒适度呈正相关；二者均与对歧视和种族冲突的认知呈负相关。定性数据分析支持了定量数据分析，并提供了丰富的细节，便于解读失聪学生与种族/族裔多样性相关的经历。
