The students at Seattle Pacific are fairly conservative. Fashionable, yet conservative, wearing the latest trends from Nordstrom, or unique brands that reflect the "hipster" style. Guys generally wear tight jeans, leather jackets, beanies and carry messenger bags. Girls generally layer their clothing, wearing skirts with thick tights and knee high boots. It reflects a nature like style with colors. Most girls dress up for class, where as some just wear yoga attire- lululemon's. The tables in the dining hall are always packed. There are tables were just three students sit together or there are large groups of girls where everyone, including many men, are trying to join the table and talk to the girls. The there are tables with people studying. There are often tables where just a few students are sitting quietly, then some other more social students join them bringing their possy. The most prevalent financial background would be upper middle class, to upper class, most students are white. There is very little racial diversity. Everyone has nice things, and often times flaunts them. Generally, students stray away from politics or stay more on the conservative side. Anyone who did not grow up in a religious home, a wealthy background may feel uncomfortable and out of place at SPU.

To start with, many of the students can seem sheltered and shallow--by the time you hit upper division classes you start to get a variety of respectable and well-informed opinions and perspectives. It's not uncommon to see familiar faces is various classes and around campus.
