[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here—this isn’t lame. I have a white kid who goes to a diverse HS and has a very diverse friend group who has noticed when there is a significantly higher percentage of white kids at some of the universities we have toured. This is something that they have been keeping in mind when looking at where they will land. [/quote]

Why don’t you name and shame those top colleges? 😉 [/quote]

Well, if you read my post closely, I didn’t mention top (OP did) and I also didn’t give it a quality of good/bad. It’s just how my kids grew up and it’s what feels normal to them and so they took it into consideration when applying. No need to shame, that’s now how I work. I was responding to the pp who called op “lame” and I didn’t want op to think that everyone thought he/she was lame. [/quote]

I am a separate poster, but my kid noticed it at Delaware and Pitt when we toured. Ended up at Mason for a number of reasons where yes, his friend group is diverse (as is the student body.) He came from a HS that was less than 15% white (he is white) so seeing very few kids of color was noticeable. [/quote]
