University of Oklahoma-Norman Campus Top Questions

Classmates who attend OU are disconnected and mostly try to get away with whatever they can, so long as they pass the course. There is little to no enthusiasm in the majority of classes on campus.

There isn't a ton of diversity on campus, the majority of us are middle/upper-class whites...but the diversity's passable. There are pockets; you just have to join the right clubs. Most students lean to the right politically. Sorority girls like to wear shorts, North Face fleece, and Uggs to class...some of the hipsters wear the required trendy keffiyeh...everyone just wears their version of casual.

A little bit of everything.

Most are willing to do a lot to achieve their goals, and are focused on their academics.

They are generally some of the nicest and friendliest folks you'll meet, although some can be real pains.

Since I am a member of a sorority, the people I mainly hang out are the people in my sorority. I don't know anyone really not in a sorority or a fraternity. It's just who I associate myself with. 87{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the student body is Greek, whether its educational or not. I would think people who aren't in a frat or sorority don't know where to socialize or how to make friends because so many are involved with them. It's not a requirement to join one, but it is a great way to make friends in college.

Very racially, religiously, and socially diverse place to be. Fairly liberal considering the south. Most students come from Texas and Oklahoma, with plenty of foreign exchange students who come because of the world renown education that Oklahoma provides.

The experiences with racial, religious, and different stereotypical groups was a well understanding of knowing and respecting everyone's own beliefs and background. Most of the students at OU were considered Caucasian, which I was okay with. The students that felt left out would probably be me because I was like the only Persian in school that didn't have his group of real friends, i really just bounced back and forth with people i associated with. Most students don't dress up to class like I was, some really didn't care what they wear, maybe some hot girls think they don't need to impress anyone and think there is no point to dressing up to class. Yes different students interacted with one another, and it really didn't matter what skin color, background, racial, or gender decent you were. Four table of students in a dining table--Table A has a group of Muslim girls with scarfs and their friends with them. Table B has a group of white people mixed with girls and guys. Table C has a group of indians studying for some exam. Table D has a group of black people cracking up jokes with one another hahaha and that's that :) Most OU students are from Texas and Oklahoma and are Caucasian. The most financial background that are more prevalent are white Caucasian people. Some students can be politically active and aware it really depends. Mostly predominately right. Yah some times i over hear a discussion and the little red head doosh-bag is trying to impress the girl saying oh im gonna make this much if I do this in business like my dad, im only doing it for the money haha"- im like "bitch a lick-a kicka- BITCH I KICK SAND ;/" HAHA

No student could ever feel out of place at OU. Even though OU is located in the center of the Bible belt, we have all kinds of students. Liberals and conservatives, homosexuals and heterosexuals, jocks and nerds, bible huggers and free sprits. Everyone can find a group at OU and all the groups seem to work well together. For students looking to quickly get involved CAC is the group that organizes all the campus activities and students of all kinds particpate. Lost of students at OU are from the Texas and Oklahoma areas, however there is a great international program, and there are students from citites all over the country like, New Orleans, Anchorage, Las Vegas, and Boston.

Extremely clicky. Black people hang out with black people. Asians hang out with asians. White people with white people,and so on...another reason that OU, as a whole, seems completely ridiculous.
