very diverse! students from all different countries, religions and interests. But all are highly motivated and intelligent.

I can't even begin to describe the diversity of students at USF. It is a large school and people come here from all over Florida, the US, and even other countries. Most students are very open about their beliefs and values. There are many special interest clubs and even cultural clubs for students to get involved in an find their place at USF. The only students that would feel out of place are students that do not take the time to get to know their classmates or join organizations. Otherwise it is very easy to make friends.

Students are very open minded at USF. We hold several LGBT events every year without any problems. Most of the students show up to class in casual shorts and a t-shirt and even pajama bottoms during the early morning hours. Most students would be considered middle- upper middle class. A lot of us receive grants and loans from the school to attend so we are by no means a rich school. I feel that most of the students are more democratic but that is common in almost all college campuses were the young think every problem can be solved. There is a smaller republican group and even a club were the more conservative can voice their opinions.

As I previously mentioned, the student body at USF is extremely diverse. We have students of every race, religion, ethnicity, and the different groups generally mingle very well. It is a very welcoming campus where students are accepted for who they are. I think people who are extremely conservative or opinionated might feel a bit out of place at this school. If there were four tables of students in the dining hall, I assume that they would all be very different. One might be athletes, while another is sorority girls, and yet another is full of student government students. Even though these students are different, they would probably know each other and turn around to talk for a little, and they would definitely respect each other. Most students are from Florida and are part of the Bright Futures recipients. Students are politically aware and both sides of politics are fairly represented.

Diversity!!

There is definitely a great diversity and I love this about USF. As an anthropology major, I always find it very interesting to observe other people; there are students of all races, from diverse countries, of different sexual orientations, and I think that everyone feels welcomed and "at home" at USF.

I love USF for it's diversity, my closest group of friends right now consist of an Albanian Muslim, Indian Hindu, Indian Orthodox Christian, Chinese Buddhist, Caucasian Catholic Christian, and me Dominican (Commonwealth) Pentecostal Christian but when we are together we don't see these differences, we see each other for our personalities and goals in life. There are groups of friends like this all over campus, and the greatest part is that we aren't with each other 100{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the time we like doing different things too we are in different organizations and do different activities but at the end of the day we know that we have each other. I think USF is a model for the future society!!!
