Acceptance and respect are important to the notion of diversity. It entails accepting the
fact that everyone of us is unique and appreciating our differences. Race, ethnicity, gender,
sexual orientation, socioeconomic class, age, physical ability, religious views, political opinions,
and other ideologies can all be considered. The abundance of literature on diversity is found
globally, but a document analysis paper is very limited. Therefore, the goal of this mini
document analysis was to assess the importance of incorporating diversity in the global higher
education system. To this effect, after providing a brief background on the current higher
education diversity status with its problems, the benefit of teaching and using diversity in higher
education, the widespread support for the diversity requirement in higher education, what higher
education’s doing in the name of diversity, and why are they doing it was discussed using
document review and analysis. Finally, the findings from the reviewed documents indicated that
diversity and its management are extremely difficult challenges to handle. They are, however, far
more relevant in the educational setting, where knowledge development and transmission are at
the center of the institution. It is also recommended that an in-depth feasibility research that
focuses on the diversity management in higher educational institution is the need of the day.
