What an applicant wouldbring to the campus -- this is the diversity of persons, practices, andthought that we talk about. In the application process it is veryimportant to communicate who you are and what you bring with youanywhere and everywhere you go as a result of who you are (yourexperiences). Your being Asian is your diversity. Being Asian is not asingle thing. It is a multitude of things. We want to know how you seeyourself in totality, beyond just being Asian. Do you affiliate withyour culture or various cultures? Do you affiliate with religion orvarious religions? What is valued by and by your family and the cultureand community from which you come. The details of who you are--beingAsian is only one big, very broad detail--these are the things we wantto know about and how you communicate your personal diversity.Thinking--yes. Character--yes. All of these things are amongst the waysthat we understand diversity. Yale My two favorite movies are: 1) The Devil Wears Prada and 2) Head OverHeels. By two least favorite movies, I can't answer, because there aremany movies I don't like, and I can't rank things I don't like. So, a cliche essay  would be an essay topic that people thing is verypredicatable. That said, we don't believe in any "cliche" essays,because we think that as long as an applicant writes a well-writtenessay that is true to who they are, it will be a strong essay. 原帖： https://www.cuus.org/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=53563
