Do non-whites face discrimination in primarily white institutions?

<p>I suggested that you talk to asian friends about discrimination, or the lack there of, they may have faced on campus. If it seems that a wide variety of people didn’t experience a problem, then you can probably recommend a friend to come to your school. However, it’s often difficult for people not of the same race to notice discrimination. </p>

<p>For instance I was riding in the car with my friend and a cop pulled him over, during the day time when they wouldn’t have been looking for DUIs or anything of the sort. His crime? Doing 37 in a 35 zone. He’s an extremely dark skinned Indian-American, and complained that that sort of thing happened all the time probably because he was “driving while dark” (his words). As a white female, I’ve never encountered that and would have said that the cops treat all people relatively equally. So again, it’s probably worth it to talk to your friends before you recommend a school located in the deep South (and yes, I’ve lived in the deep South and the racism there is simply appalling, at least in rural Georgia).</p>
