<p>Do people at Haverford tend to fuse into cliques?</p>
<p>If you’re asking whether HC students tend to enjoy the company of those who share similar interests to their own, the answer is yes. Who doesn’t? People who enjoy the arts will like talking to others in the arts and people who come from a particular cultural background may feel more comfortable spending time with others who have gone through a similar experience and who can talk about it with them… and that’s fine.</p>
<p>If, by “cliques”, you’re referring to some bad teen-movie or what most people consider a typical high school experience, the answer is no. People who choose to go to a small Quaker LAC (and I guess who are accepted as well) are selected out and have core characteristics that make them similar despite whether they play a sport, which side of the dining center they sit on, … ect. It’s impossible to socialize only “within” a clique at HC cause it’s too small of a school to do so… there are simply not enough people around. Also, most HC students have a breadth of academic and curricular interests and have a diversity of life experience and opinion (that’s why they get accepted) that makes it hard to define people into cliques. </p>
