The majority of people here are from Florida which doesn't mean much since Florida is a pretty big state and has a lot of different cultures embedded in it such as southerners and Hispanics. But I have also met a lot of people from out of Florida-- I've met people from Boston, Chicago, and even from the Middle East and Greece. It's very nice to have such diversity. There are a lot of different religious, racial, LGBT and other personalized clubs and groups that are quite popular here as they become a supportive group but the different groups also mix well together. Everyone is pretty friendly on campus regardless of race, gender, orientation, or religion. There are also a lot of political groups that have displays and meetings but everything is pretty relaxed-- everyone is respectful and not in your face.

I simply cannot emphasize the diversity of Florida State's student population enough. I see new people walking around campus every day. As I walk by, I wonder what their stories are, what their majors are, what their family is like. I never see the same person twice, even if I walk the same route! There is a place for everyone to fit in - being a loner is an impossible feat here! Students wear everything from high heels to sweatpants when they go to class. A lot of students are from the state of Florida, but I have met students from Maryland, Georgia, New York, and even California!
