<p>I see too much of whites hanging out with whites, asians with asians, blacks with blacks, hispanics with hispanics and the list goes on. Are there any schools that tend to have more mixed groups. Like have you ever seen an Asian at a white frat?</p>
<p>What is a "white frat". I know of traditionally Black, Latino, and Asian frats, but a "traditionally white" frat would be called racist. There are Asians in all the IFC frats here at NU (well except for AEPi, for obvious reasons).</p>
<p>nice that's what i like to hear. i'm saying white frat because to me that's what it's becoming. I'm not trying to be racist i'm just curious haha</p>
<p>Most LACs are really integrated.</p>
<p>For universities, Rice, Yale, Stanford are supposed to be good in this regard.</p>
<p>how about the so called "party schools" places like Wisconsin and UCSB</p>
<p>I haven't been on UW's campus in awhile, but it always seemed like segregation happened naturally. There is some racial and cultural diversity, but people tend to hang out with their own. There isn't really hatred or anything, everyone gets along...people just seem most comfortable with their own culture. </p>
<p>UCSB is significantly more diverse (50:50 ratio of white to minority), but I don't know how it exactly plays out in everyday life. </p>
<p>From what I can gather, LACs are usually the best at integration (which, I suppose, would include party-oriented LACs, like Dickinson and Colgate). Mid-sized universities would probably be second best. It seems to me that segragation tends to naturally happen at larger schools, because it's easier for people to immediately find niches with people of similar backgrounds. That's just an observation though...no solid stats or anything to back it up.</p>
<p>That said, if you're looking for a party school, University of Miami comes to mind as being extremely diverse and integrated.</p>
<p>Probably UF too, on that note.</p>
<p>Yale is integrated? Why do they have part of their new student orientation as "Why do all the Black kids sit together?"</p>
<p>My suite mate is Asian and is in a "white" fraternity...</p>
<p>Anyway, there will be some segregation wherever you go for one reason: people tend to feel more at ease when they are with people with similar backgrounds. I'm not saying that all Asian/black/white/whatever people grew up the same way, but people of the same ethnic group <em>tend</em> to relate more.</p>
<p>I don't have an answer to your question, however I've been wondering the same thing. Cant we all just kick it?!?!?! Lol. Race, however will never go away we need to learn how to mix and mingle.</p>

<p>This is true and it also just says something about the world.</p>
<p>Plug for my school. Rice's residential college system tends to foster integration among students pretty well. I would expect the same from places like Yale, which has a similar system.</p>
<p>Princeton review has a list for class/race interaction (and another for worst). Last year Rice was #1 on the good one.</p>
<p>And Rice is awesome! Rice>ivies.</p>
<p>Demographics Lots of Race/Class Interaction </p>
<p>Do different types of students (Black/White, rich/poor) interact frequently and easily?</p>

<p>Funny. I was also going to suggest Rice as a school that is very integrated as a result of the residential college system.</p>
<p>UC Santa Cruz was when I was there especially at Oaks and Stevenson.</p>
<p>Colgate is supposed to be quite white-bread, as is Bucknell. Then again, seems like most party-heavy LACs are low on the diversity and integration scale.</p>
<p>Well, schools evolve with time. When I first started at GW, it was incredibly segregated. I saw no interracial couples and maybe a few interracial friends my entire freshman year.</p>
<p>By the time I graduated, it was nearly 100% integrated. People of different religions and races hung out together, everyone was friends with each other, and there were plenty of interracial couples. The student body can change drastically in just a few years.</p>
<p>Definitely rice.</p>
