When I walk to class every student seems to be the same, but with a great diversity at the same time. I dont look at race or ethicity when I look at students at CSU, because everyone is equal. Most students at CSU seem to have a good financial background.
Michelle
Very white campus. Not necessarily racist, but very few minorities. Some very rich, snobby people, lots of down to earth chill kids. Pretty liberal campus, despite the rest of fort collins being conservative.
Toby
Although there is some diversity among CSU students, the student body is heavily dominanted by caucasians. A great diversity in the student body would be more benifical for all the students
Natalie
I really don't pay much attention to the student body
Kate
When going to class, what people wear is usually split. There are always people dressed to impress and others in sweats. There are many people from out of state and many from instate, I have met about half and half.
Shawn
Most CSU students seem to be from Colorado. There seem to be a lot of people who knew eachother before they came to school and it is kinda hard to make new friends.
Sierra
I haven't really interacted with any of these kinds of groups. I think African American people may feel a little out of place just because CSU has a very white concentrated population.
Dawson
CSU is the only school that I have attended that did not have a problem with feeling out of place. Everyone on campus is really friendly and nobody really judges you. Everyone can express their own individual self. Everyone has their own different style and personality and it is great meeting new people with different perspectives.
Allison
CSU is very accepting of all types of people. there is very little apparent judgement. i feel free to be myself and wear what i want to. i think it needs to be a little more racially diverse though.
Amy
The out reach groups are very persistent. I see a divesity but not as much as other schools. I would want more in all the clubs.
Meg
Our student body is not as diverse as many other areas around the country, but I feel as though we're all very accepting of each others cultures and beliefs. Except for the guys who yell about religion on the plaza.
Stacey
The other groups on campus are available however, their voice is often ignored in the hustle of college life.
Sam
The student body is diverse and outspoken. Sometimes it's a good thing, sometimes it's not. People think we can just live in simple harmony with each other, but the reality is is that mankind has not got along since the beginning of time, so it's not going to happen now.

I am an RA on campus so I have seen the best and the worst of the student population. There are many oportunites to get involved. There are many diversity centerd organizations which help to raise awareness on campus. CSU itself is not a very diverse place, it would be nice to have a more diverse population so that we could learn from each others differences.
Allison
the student body is really accepting of everybody. i like that everyone is different and no one cares what you look like or what you're wearing. i feel like campus could be more racially diverse though.
Evan
I see an enormous amount of students who are fully supported by their parents, which means I see an enormous amount of people who lack responsibility and motivation. This results in a cell-phone addicted, mouth-open, and drag-your-heels student population. I love walking in the middle of campus during a gorgeous day but when you see one thousand students that day without more than 10 seconds of eye contact you feel normal, insignificant, and like a zombie. You have become just like everyone else out there. Now if you can only picture all of these people with their mouths open! Just close your mouth, and maybe things will change for the positive. The 10 seconds of eye contact is just accidental. "Whoops, I caught eyes with someone." I am not saying that I am a hagrid student. I am an athletic and "cute" guy who loves to people watch. We need more pride in this University, and not just at the football games.
Theresa
It is really diverse and I feel everyone makes CSU what it is!
Steph
The campus does not have too much of a diverse group of students. Sadly the campus is primarily white. Most of the students that attend this school are from colorado.
Dylan
I like the fact that everyone dresses casual to school and no-one talks about what you're wearing you have the freedom to wear and act the way you want.
