How much does diversity affect your college experience?

I’m not in college yet, so my opinion may be irrelevant, but my high school is ~76% white, and I’m mixed (black, white, native). On top of that, I’ve always been “that one black kid” in honors classes as well, but I think I’ve been more aware of it than everyone else. Obviously it’s a little different because I’ve grown up with these kids, but I don’t feel like they’ve ever treated me differently because of the color of my skin. Once you start warming up to people, I doubt anyone’s going to care what color you are.
