My classmates are very friendly for the most part. We get together for study groups and engage in discussions outside of class. Also, during class, if I missed something on the board, my classmates would be more than willing to show me their notes.

My classmates are a mixture of everything, but are eager to learn for the most part.

Long Island JAPs, lots of rich spoiled brats who got into better schools but chose Bing b/c it's less expensive, so their parents gave them a car

There's a group for every kind of person on campus. There's a catholic church on the edge of campus, there's a very active Hillel group and Chabad, there's other religious groups and political organizations, a Food Co-op for organic and vegetarian food, there's RPU (Rainbow Pride Union)... the list goes on, so it doesn't really seem like anyone could be left out, though if you go look around the cafeteria the Asians all eat together, the Black students usually eat together, it gets kind of segregated outside of classes.

New Yorkers

My classmates are extremely friendly, helpful and fun! They are focused on what they want, but they also make time for play. There really is never a dull moment at Binghamton, you're either studying, sleeping, going to class or having fun! It's a really great atmosphere to grow, and the diversity of the students helps out a great deal. With the diversity, you learn to put aside stereotypes and respect the person for who they are, not their religion or what they look like. Students work together as a team.

Mostly much too serious and stressed. Good grades can be had without aderall and insomnia.

I feel like my classmates are either really good students who are smart and always go to class, or hungover bums who just woke up 5 minutes before the lecture.

at binghamton you would find student organization from all country! at binghamton i dont think any body would feel out place because of all the vaerity of student and staff that are at binghamton that are willing to help you whenever you need it!

I feel that Binghamton is pretty diverse and there are so many different clubs for every type of person Since we're mostly New Yorkers Binghamton has people from the city and upstate but mostly the students are from Long Island

Binghamton has a great range of students. We have an organization for probably every race, religion, political, sexual orientation out there. The only way I would say the student body is skewed is towards Asians, Jewish populations, Long Islanders, and upstate New Yorkers. I honestly can't think of anyone I've met at school who isn't one of those four things. If a student feels strongly about something, get involved! The SA seems to be doing a great job and all the clubs seem to be great, although first hand I couldn't tell you, though I do plan to get involved a lot more next sesmster!

Most undergraduate students who enroll at BU are from the New York City and Long Island area. They are usually from high socio-economic backgrounds, mostly White or Asian Indian and generally do not mix with other racial groups. In dining halls, there will be tables comprised only of White students, only of Black students, and only of Asian Indian students. Although there is some degree of diversity in the student population, there is no attempt by the administration to provide opportunities for students of different racial and socio-economic backgrounds to interact. For example, there are separate orientation programs for domestic (American) students and for international students. I believe that this segregation is unnecessary.

bing is racially diverse. more so if you live in hinman or dickinson. i dont think any student would feel out of place, its an open accepting environment. most kids dress casually in sweatpants. frat and sorority letters are big for those ppl in them. all types interact. tables in the dining hall asians, japs/sorority girls, athletes, no titles. most students are from long island and the 5 boroughs. most kids are middle class. kids are politically aware and active. the ones that speak out the most are more liberal.

The student body is diverse and well populated. But the diversity does not mean intermingling of races/ethnicities. Many of the students are open to others, some tend to gather with others or their own.
