<p>my mom heard it was clique-ish at brown. is this true? also, i know that brown is diverse, but do different races and nationalities mix?</p>
<p>people who strongly identify with a more marginalized ethnicity tend to congregate the same way they do everywhere, but not in a way that is exclusive</p>
<p>people from different background tend to mix much moreso than every other place i've been</p>
<p>isn't it clique-ish to some degree everywhere?</p>
<p>estargrl, I'm just curious about where your mom heard that... it wasn't in a Vanity Fair artcile, by any chance, was it?</p>
<p>Brown can be cliquish, but no more so than average, I'd say. Generally, it's a very accepting place.</p>
<p>i have no idea where she heard it, but we don't get vanity fair, so i guess not from there</p>
