<p>Sort of on topic young adults colleges and what they notice. My kids attend a melting pot of race/ethnicities type suburban high school. My d, her best friend, and friends mom and I went to a NE private accepted students day this past weekend. </p>
<p>In the car on the way home when we asked the girls what they thought, they said did you notice nobody had a shade darker than blonde hair color. Both girls are as white almost transparent themselves. They said it made them VERY uncomfortable to be in that environment, they said it almost made them feel that they would HAVE to be just like everybody else clothing wise activity wise. Both girls have very independant streaks not followers. </p>
<p>What we moms noticed was the elitist double speak of the parents. Give me the diversity over that environment anyday. Im glad my kids have the opportunity to be themselves in a diverse environment, it is much more conducive to being who ever you want to become. </p>
<p>So glad my kids see past it, and have every ethnicity/race/nationality as friends.</p>
