The students at Louisiana State University (LSU) come from numerous walks of life. Our exchange program brings individuals from many diverse backgrounds. Students come from Central and South America, Europe, even Africa to our magnificent campus. Even in the states, people from all different races, religions, social classes, sexualities, even hometowns come together as one student body. As a melting pot of varying personalities and temperaments, we love each other, help each other, and in unknowing ways change the lives of those around us for the better. At Louisiana State University we are more than a school, we are a family.

Each of my classes has a variety of students. Most of my classmates attend class on a regular basis to take notes and quizzes. Some of my classmates do not attend class as frequently, and they receive notes from other students via email and websites. Many of my classmates are willing to help others such as comparing notes and creating study groups before big tests. My classes are very large, but the students are able to sinteract in and out of the classroom in a way that is beneficial to everyone.

Accepting of everyone. Although the student body does tend to lean toward southern tradition, it is very understanding of many cultures. I've met students from all over the world. We are fairly politically aware and lean right ideologically.

You'll find your niche. No matter where you fit in.
