Baylor has a pretty homogenous crowd, but where there is diversity there is usually segregation as well. If you're a minority, you'll usually join a sorority/fraternity for that minority. If you're liberal, you'll usually hang out with the more liberal crowd. I wouldn't say that the students have anything against each other, but that's just how it usually works out. Most students would probably find their niche on campus, though if you're not Christian, you might find it difficult to put up with chapel and the religion classes. Students usually are pretty casually dressed for class. Many girls wear Nike running shorts and t-shirts or jeans and casual shirts. Sometimes girls will wear dresses and skirts, but it's never a big deal--there are a lot of different styles in one classroom. Most Baylor students are from east/central Texas and there's a good chance their parents went to Baylor as well. A lot of girls even stayed in the same room their mothers stayed in when they were at Baylor (which I always though was kinda creepy). Most students are also middle/upper class, but there's diversity in that and most (but not all) students are okay with students from different backgrounds financially. Students aren't too politically active--we don't ever have protests or rallies. We're pretty conservative though as a whole, though maybe not as conservative as some would like to believe. For some reason, a lot of people from my city thought that I'd be coming to a school with a lot of gay guys, but I really haven't seen to much of it--I may just be naive about that, though. Most students plan on living a charmed life of wealth and importance... and their kids coming to Baylor, too.
