It came as a surprise when Diego changed his mind suddenly. He went on to become one of our best tutors and a great contributor to our center.

Nancy Grimm has set the bar high for recruiting and retaining a diverse tutoring staff. Her university, she writes, is 95 percent white, but she and her staff have succeeded in creating a center that employs underrepresented students at between 30 and 40 percent (Grimm 2011). She has done this in part by encouraging students who use the center to apply to become coaches there. Grimm makes diversity a “core value” in her center; multiliteracy can be part of that commitment to diversity, as it is in Grimm’s center; in our experience, multilingual students make great tutors!
