All Right
Kids go bowling on Wednesdays and there are party houses in Decorah every weekend.
Roscoe's is frequented by most students. The age to get into the bar is 19, so it's popular among all classes. There's free movie night sponsored by the college every month at the movie theater. Though most places are walking distance from each other, it's best to know someone with a car to get around when it gets cold.
Basically, Decorah's pretty wet at night.

Luther Tries
The campus is in the middle of Iowa and Minnesota, so of course everyone is white. There are many cliques of international students on campus and everyone is friendly to each other (I mean it's Luther after-all). Diversity - D, Acceptance - A.
Regarding economic background there are a lot of kids from small towns with a lot of money, but there's little "class separation". Modest kids and stuck-up kids. Everyone's so nice it doesn't really matter.
There's a PRIDE organization on campus, but it is not very popular. Chances are if you were in the closet in high school from growing up in a small town, you will likely find a lot of kids in the same boat. But no one will make fun of you if you are gay. Everyone's pretty cool with it. Orientation's just not a big deal on campus.

Division III
This is a school where 1000 out of the 2500 students are involved in music whether it be choir, band, orchestra, voice lessons or anything in between. Our sports players play for the joy of the game. There are many sports teams, Luther probably has the sport you are interested in playing.
But basically they're just not really a big deal compared to the music program.
