Swarthmore enrollment stats

<p>The crack team in the Swarthmore Institutional Research department has started posting this year's statistical data, starting with the official enrollment numbers as of Oct 1, 2011:</p>

<p>Swarthmore's diversity continues to increase, across the board. This year, 47% of the student body is non-white and/or international. IMO, this is one of Swarthmore's most significant defining characteristics.</p>

**8% Temporary Resident
10% Black, Non-Hispanic
1%  American Indian or Alaskan Native
17% Asian or Pacific Islander
12% Hispanic
53% White, Non-Hispanic**
