Latino Scene

What's the Latino scene like at this school? All types of Latinos (White, Brown, etc.)?

And how good do the Latinas look? :P

It is in Miami... the city is 65% hispanic, I don't know the demographics of the school itsself but I think whites are around 60% .. its a pretty diverse school, you won't have a problem finding any type of person on campus.

The latino scene at Miami is probably one of the best if not the best in country. They're always having festivals, i.e. in April they had the Cuban Music festival for a week on the patio. And you'll also be guaranteed to fine more than enough Hispanic friends. I'm Jewish and I have friends from Argentina, Peru, Chile, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Brazil, Colombia and Cuba and I've only been at Miami for one semester.
