Texas Tech University Diversity had a new discussion posted by sromero115

Hispanics aren't the overwhelming majority, but yes, there are!

Plus there are plenty of Hispanic clubs/fraternities/sororities you can join if that's what you're into. :)

Thank you, and is it hard to get into texas tech?

Texas Tech has a diverse campus with a mix of blondes and brunettes, big city kids and small town folks, and men and women. However, Tech is lacking when it comes to ethnic diversity. Nearly 80 percent of the new freshman in 2006 were Caucasian. Stats much like this one can be found in the years prior to 2006, making ethnic diversity on the Tech campus a trend that may not be catching on anytime soon.

Having a mix of students from different parts of the U.S. brings different ideas and cultures to a campus. This diversity adds more to the college learning experience than does ethnic diversity alone, but sadly, Tech seems to be lacking in this area as well. In 2006, the number of enrolled Tech students who were from Texas beat out the number of international and out-of-state students by over 20,000 people. But with all of these Texans comes a lot of Texas pride, and that pride does help to create a more unified campus.
