Abstract	Using the conceptual foundation "diversity matters" (Orbe & Allen, 2008), this essay calls for research examining the NCA learning outcomes in communication related to diversity, inclusion, privilege, and intercultural communication (mostly existing in LOC 8). The authors argue this research will serve as a relevant and vital foundation for authentic pedagogical praxis that embraces diversity across the communication discipline, not just in particular courses. If the goals of learning outcomes are to prepare students for civic life or their professional career, educators are doing them a disservice by relegating issues of diversity to only intercultural communication courses. Rather, diversity must be central to all communication studies curricula. Inquiry surrounding this issue will help steps toward transformative teaching practices fostered by scholarly collaboration and sincere intellectual partnerships (Fasset & Nainby, 2016; hooks, 1994).
