There is a lot of diversity at suffolk, however, the diverse groups tend to stick together as groups. I don't see diversity in the sense that you walk into a room and everyone is meshed together comfortably talking about the weather. The numbers show that there are many races, and socioeconomic classes represented at suffolk, however, because Suffolk is so cliquey, these groups keep very much to themselves. There are a ton of "financially well off" students, some international, who's biggest pasttime at Suffolk is drinking and clubhopping. There are a ton of stoners, in fact, nearly everyone at suffolk smokes weed, minus the few who have moral objections to it or are health conscious. There are a few people who are active within "the school community" however, there are about 30 of them, and they makeup most of the clubs here at suffolk. The gay population is accepted here, I havn't heard of any incidents of discrimination, we do have an LGBT club. I would describe the political atmosphere at Suffolk as "apathetic". A few people went to go see Barack Obama speak in the Boston Common, but it definitely wasn't the buzz around campus (as I remember it was the fact that Ben Affleck recently screened his new movie at the AMC Theatre down the street)
