[quote=Anonymous]I spent a year at the university and then transferred to MD, in part because everyone there was so freakin' white. Soooo whiiiiiite. Whatever anyone tells you about the university attracting a diverse population, it's all bollocks. It's a sea of white people, with some African and Chinese exchange students thrown in. And the reason I found that annoying is that people didn't really have a frame of reference for their views. I'm a liberal, but even the liberals there bothered me because their views came from a naive, simplistic, can't-we-all-just-get-along, I-don't-see-skin-color perspective. To be honest, I'm not sure that would bother me as much now. As I get older, I'm less interested in engaging in politics. But at the time, studying public policy, I didn't find the atmosphere stimulating (contrary to its reputation). And, yes, it's bitterly cold and windy.[/quote]
