I visited Cal Poly during Open House and coming from East Los Angeles, Cal Poly is not diverse at all. I mean yes, occasionally you do see some non-whites, but when I toured the Electrical Engineering facilities, I only saw three people that were non-white out of the whole group. Diversity is one of the main reasons why I almost turned Cal Poly down. Although it will probably be somewhat of a minor challenge to make friends, I think I will be well off once I get there this Fall. In case you are wondering, I am Mexican as well but raised in California.
