Diversity Grades:
College Prowler Take
It is obvious by looking at ISU’s diversity statistics that the campus is not swarming with different ethnicities. Even though ISU does not discriminate against any race or culture, it just happens that the students are predominantly white. Many students hail from either small local farming communities or the suburbs of Chicago, both of which happen
to be predominantly white. Many students are very open to learning about different cultures, but there are not enough multicultural students on campus. The social groups at ISU also tend to lack diversity. It seems that the different cultures that are represented at ISU tend to hang out with their own culture. even though there is not a wide variety of diversity at ISU, that does not mean students discriminate or avoid interacting with each other. ISU students are known for being accepting of one another, and that is exactly how they act.
It would be nice to see more diversity at ISU because it would give students at the University the opportunity to learn about different cultures. ISU does promote minority clubs and does a decent job at spreading the word on diversity. The university also does a good job in making sure that each culture is represented fairly and included in all campus events. It may remain a mystery why ISU lacks diversity, but students from other cultures always feel welcome on campus. Students Speak Out

ISU is not that diverse. I remember reading somewhere that only, like, 10 percent of the student body belongs to a minority, which I think is low. It would be nice to see the level of diversity increase. |

It is pretty average as far as diversity. There are many different ethnicities. A lot of times, people don’t think it is very diverse, but that is because they are just hanging out with the same people and not looking around. |

The campus is fairly diverse in my opinion. However, there is clearly a dominant white population for the student body. |
FactsEconomic Status
Many ISU students hail from the suburbs of Chicago, so the economic status is generally middle class. Generally, economic status is not an issue on campus as it’s difficult to tell where a student is from based on appearance.
Gay Pride
ISU is very respectful of all sexual orientations, and many students at ISU accept everyone for who they are and do not discriminate. People Realizing Individuality and Diversity through Education (PRIDE) is one of the student organizations that helps to educate the campus on diversity.
Minority Clubs
ISU is not a very diverse school, but there are a few well-known minority clubs, such as the Black Student Union, Association of Latin American Students, and Asian Pacific American Coalition. There are also a few sororities and fraternities dedicated to different cultures.
Most Common Religions
Christianity and Catholicism are the most common religions on campus. Students are able to find many student organizations that have religious affiliations on campus. Many of their activities are publicized on campus, but it is not overbearing. At times though, a variety of religious leaders protest on the Quad.
Political Activity
The campus is generally a liberal campus, and many political parties keep to themselves. ISU does have student organizations, such as the College Democrats and the College Republicans, that spread their views around campus.
