Therefore, this thesis explores two themes. One, how students of Leiden University experience feeling “at home” or alienated in their campus environment in the age of the growing student mobility, within and across borders, and the role study associations and (D&I-supported) student-led networks play in this. Two, the role diversity awareness (practices and projects) play in students feeling “at home” or alienated at the university, by looking at the Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) policy in practice, particularly as seen from the students’ perspectives.Show less
