Hamilton students are rich kids that don't know what is going on in the real world. They think that the majority of the world is well off and just a few people are struggling and if there struggling it's their fault. Most of the students are from the middle of no where. A lot of the students hadn't seen a person of color until they came to Hamilton. Then they we're shocked they saw some at Hamilton.
