Diversity/Openness at Iowa State/Ames

Usually the number of reported minorities on a college’s stats are domestic students only and don’t include international. If there is a large number of international students, the campus may look very different than the numbers report.

One of my kids goes to Wyoming and she was very worried about the 80%+ white students stat. She wanted a more diverse student body. She has found it to not be an issue at all. There are a fair number of white, conservative students but she’s found a lot of diversity in politics, religion, race, foreign students.

My other daughter attends the school with the highest percentage of international students in the US. The reported racial statistics mean nothing.
