[quote=Anonymous]The notion that a parent would spend $100K/year to send their child to Tufts or the like to get a diverse college experience is laughable. Sending your child to the suburbs of Boston (a place known to have had racial segregation and issues for decades) to spend more time with black people instead of letting them live in any Southern state (where most of the black people in this country live and--this may shock you--actually hang out with white people) is absurd. We are in-state in TN and my child's tuition at UTK next year will be $5K. I am elated. I went to a top DC private and university, both of which DCUM posters are obsessed with. I am liberal and so is my community in TN. My children and I have diverse friend groups. If you are sending your child to a private university and spending $400K on their education, I am here to let you know that you are not placing them in a "diverse" environment in any way. [/quote]
