<p>I go to a top LAC in the Midwest where there have been several racial incidents in the last few years. I personally haven’t faced anything more than hair petting and ignorant comments (a student once called my last name “exotic”), but I know of many other who claim racist remarks/actions from fellow students and faculty. My school is somewhere around 85% white, and while the administration tries to increase diversity and racial awareness on campus, there are still those students who don’t understand why certain things they say are racist. My advice is to make prospective students aware of any racial incidents or tension on campus, then let them decide for themselves whether or not they want to attend.</p>
