Anyone there?!?!</p>

<p>No, there is not much racism at Auburn. In fact, Auburn is full of some of the most kind and polite people you would ever want to meet. Plus, almost 40% of students come from out of state, so it is also very welcoming of other people in general.</p>

<p>But… don’t take my word for it. Visit Auburn and make your own judgment.</p>

<p>There is as much racism at Auburn as there is at any other institution of 20,000 or more people between the ages of 18-22. I went to graduate school at Auburn. In my 2 years in Auburn, I never once saw or heard anything that can be construed as racist. I think these comment are people trying to keep the stereotype of Southerns being backwards and ignorant. I’m from Chicago, very liberal, and I found Auburn more conservative than I am used to, but quite moderate overall - we we all should be. Racism exists, but it’s on the fringe like there is racism at Stanford or Harvard or Yale. Just a stupid question to ask. </p>
