Diversity?

W&L also known as White and Loaded. Enough said. But if you're looking for diversity beyond the color of someone's skin, W&L is definitely home to many people from many different backgrounds and locations. It has a great student body!

Not too big on sports

The sports here are a big part of campus only if you take part in them. Besides that, not many fans come to the games, even for football. It contrasts a big state school in this regard completely. No one is ever talking about the upcoming match and not many people show interest in varsity sports in general.
