Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Diversity at San Diego State can be a tricky thing. When you’re walking around campus on the weekends, it often feels like everyone is an affluent white person. Greek life is dominated by these types of people, and it seems as if their presence is dominating in numerous aspects of campus life. However, if you truly open your eyes to all the areas of campus, you will find that diversity is actually quite high. Walking around campus on a weekday, you will see a variety of races and people of different cultures. It’s all a matter of how aware you are. If you look at only one scene, you will only see one particular perspective. If you look everywhere, you will see that there is plenty of diversity on the San Diego State campus.

Statistical figures for San Diego State confirm the presence of diversity on campus. There is a large representation of Hispanics and Asians. San Diego State, statistically, is actually considered highly diverse. The classrooms are a perfect example to show off the campus’ diversity. Many ethnic backgrounds and races are represented. Off campus and in the dorms, people who hang out together tend to show diversity.

Pretty Diverse, I Guess

I would say SDSU is pretty diverse. There are many students with many different races and religions. A big percent of the demographics are Asians and Whites, next in line are probably Mexicans but it makes sense since the city is full of them. SDSU is a public school so religion and sexual orientation are acceptable. Our school promotes diversity. The high schools in the area are diverse as well so it makes sense this college is just as diverse.
