[quote=Anonymous]Totally disagree that all college student bodies are basically the same people. Do you really think the students at CUNY are the same people you'd encounter at University of Alabama or Ole Miss?! Now, to be fair, the national universities that are more selective and expensive do tend to have a "type" of student body. Those kids at places like Vanderbilt, Berkeley, NYU, or Swarthmore and top SLACs are overwhelmingly from college educated families in the top 30% of HHI. Most come from the major metro areas in their home states (which are almost all states on the coasts or Chicago/Dallas/Houston/Austin/Nashville) and very few are from rural areas. And they're majority White, except for the top schools in CA like Cal, UCLA, and Stanford. There are many reasons people don't want to go to UC Merced. [/quote]
