Hello. An international(asian) student speaking:)
I have heard many cases of either explicit or implicit racial discrimination among students in even prestigious universities. Of course the perpetraters of such cases could pertain to a certain group or individuals and definitely not the whole student body, but it just worried me a little. My highschool senior at Dartmouth returned home after about 3 months or so due emotional distress due to discrimination. Is this also the case in Columbia?? If I am chosen, I would definitely go, but just checking :)
