[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, it’s better than Ole Miss!

It’s as others say - there is overt racism. It’s possible to avoid that but you need to work harder. Take a look at the sororities and look at the “rankings” online. Those that are diverse at all are ranked lowest (and we aren’t talking really diverse lol). When you look at the IG pages, the girls seem lovely. More of them are out of state and so may not know as many people. So it seems like you could have a solid friend group of relatively open minded people. But you’re at the lower end of the totem pole and there is a dominant culture and hierarchy that you’re not part of. Not what I would want for my kids, whether they are white or not. [/quote]

This is ridiculous.  Have you ever spent any time on either of these campuses? We have a (minority) kid at Alabama and one at Ole Miss -- they have never once run into this. People are generally friendly, happy, and welcoming on both campuses. The students are overall happy and enjoying a traditional college experience.

If you go looking for something negative everywhere you'll likely find it--- [/quote]
