Comparable Schools' Diversity Grades:
College Prowler Take
The sheer diversity on UCLA’s campus can be viewed as both strikingly evident and a misnomer. Despite the falling numbers in minority enrollment over recent years, there is still a strong showing of minorities within the UCLA world. The diverse groups at UCLA do their best to welcome other members of similar races and show their pride around campus. There are ethnic clubs that give diversity some stature on campus such as the African Student Union, Mecha (for Hispanic students), and the Asian Pacific Coalition. Much racial intermingling occurs through intramural sports, parties, and interest-based clubs. Some people are intimidated by ethnic clubs and for that reason stray away from embracing other cultures. The vocalization of the minority groups makes minorities seem more plentiful on campus. Take a look at the percentages and note how the numbers are higher for some minorities than they are for others. Despite the shortcomings, UCLA’s campus is one of the most diverse in the United States. Minority students on campus also have many resource centers and readily interact with the rest of the campus through exhibitions and culture shows that occur each week. On a personal level, making a friend for life with a person of another race is easily possible. You will definitely see diversity everywhere on campus.

It's a very diverse campus. Although it's mostly Asian, there's definitely a lot of people of all ethnic backgrounds. Likewise, a majority of the people are liberal, but there are enough conservatives to warrant a newspaper for them. Overall, if you want to find a niche revolving around one group, you'll find it.

The majority of students at UCLA are Asian of some sort or another. Coming from a small central California town consisting of about 80 percent Hispanics, it has been weird for me to notice that there are very few Hispanics here. Economically, most of the students seem to be from middle-class families.

No one really emphasizes the differences here—people just accept the diversity, of which there is a lot.

The campus is pretty diverse economically, with a variety of students from different economic backgrounds on different plans through college. Ethnically, it is mostly Asian and Caucasian, with a variety of other backgrounds after that. Politically and ideologically, it's mostly very liberal, but not devoid of other views.

For the most part, UCLA is a somewhat diverse campus. If you’re an outsider looking at UCLA, you would see a lot of Caucasians and Asians, but once you get to meet more people, and find out about the different organizations, you find that UCLA has a lot to offer in terms of people with different backgrounds. |
FactsEconomic Status
The economic diversity here spans the spectrum. There are rich and poor students of every ethnicity, but certain groups tend to attract a rich and snobbish stereotype. Don’t let stereotypes speak for the group. Many students are easygoing and approachable despite the pre-painted picture.
Gay Pride
There is campus resource center and major designed towards lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender education and awareness www.saonet.ucla.edu/lgbt
Minority Clubs
The minority clubs at UCLA are a political juggernaut on campus. There is a political action group at UCLA that is mainly comprised of the minority clubs and associations on campus. See the Student Organizations section for more information.
Political Activity
Most of the minority groups are politically active, and at least once a year they try to raise awareness of a larger concern.
