Describe the students at Iowa State University.

Maggie

There are great religion opportunities for me since that is such a big part of my life.

Taylor

Iowa is pretty much the whitest place on earth. Nicest people, but not a whole lot of culture. Don't get me wrong, everyone is accepted and liked, but there is just not a lot to mix in together. The music interest is mainly country. Country and rap. The Iowa mix. Most everyone is from a middle to upper class background. I would say most students are of the conservative nature, except for us design kids, which are pretty liberal. There are other liberals, I suppose. Pretty much all of the agriculture peeps are conservative. Hardcore.

I believe that all students of any background would easily fit into Iowa State's campus. At class you can find student wearing just about anything. There are those who dress casual, dress up, dress in sweat, cowboy gear, all black, anything and everything imagineable. On campus people are friendly and easy to talk to. You can be talking to someone at a bus stop who you've never met and strike up a completely normal conversation just as if they were your friend from high school.

I took a women studies class that focused on lesbians. they offered us connections to enter groups about lesbianism if we were interested.

Taylor

We have a fairly diverse student body. The cool people wear their sweats and pj's to class.

The student body at Iowa State is not that diverse. It is mostly caucasian but there is a high asian population as well. I don't think any student would feel out of place at Iowa State. There just may not be that many people like them. Most of the students here are from Iowa or the surrouding midwest states.

Elizabeth

Most students are caucasian, but there is plenty of diversity since it's a big state school. Most students wear Iowa State sweatshirts and jeans around campus. Most students are from Iowa. I think most students are conservative politically.

Ellen

There are all kinds of students at ISU. I think it'd be hard for someone to feel out of place if they were involved. There are groups for all kinds of students.

Alyssa

Iowa State is a very white raced campus. There isn't much diversity at all, with a large exception of the athletic teams.

Leah

The greek students are very involved on campus.
