This study examined teacher educators' and student teachers' beliefs about, attitudes toward, and sensitivity regarding cultural diversity and other diversity issues. The Beliefs about Diversity Scale was used to assess respondents' beliefs about race, gender, social class, ability, language/immigration, sexual orientation, and multicultural education. Study participants were 45 teacher educators and 78 preservice teachers at Mississippi State University. The preservice teachers were all enrolled in a Social Foundations of Education course. Data analysis indicated that the preservice teachers scored at culturally sensitive levels for all subgroup areas except sexual orientation. Teacher educators scored at culturally sensitive levels for all subgroup areas. The teacher educators' lowest sensitivity levels were for issues of language/immigration. For both groups, the highest sensitivity levels related to issues of race. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in their overall beliefs about diversity issues.
