Some of the students are lazy, some are super overachieving (especially the honors students). Most just depend on the personality. All of the students are super nice though--"Minnesota Nice." A lot of the students dress normally, sweatpants, shirts, uggs. All students interact with each other, there is no clear dividing line. It seems to me that most students here have their parents pay for everything and can go on trips all the time. It seems a lot of them come from wealthy backgrounds, unlike me. I've noticed that a lot of the students aren't aware of what's going on in the world. They're either very self-absorbed and unintelligent or are intelligent and just know what's in textbooks. Most are culturally aware. Many of them are christian and republicans.

My classmates at SCSU cannot be described in a few words. At games, they are dedicated fans of the SCSU Huskies, in class they are scholars, outside of class they are people you can easily connect with because of the nonjudgemental atmosphere at SCSU. Here, you meet a lot of different but great people everywhere you go. There is never a dull moment with my classmates here at SCSU.

There is a lot of diversity at St. Cloud State, at least for me (growing up in a small town in Minnesota) but the diversity hasn't ever been an issue for me. It seems that every group (LGBT, racial, ethnic, etc) has some sort of group on campus that promotes themselves and has information nights for other students to learn about their culture, heritage or way of life. Most of the students are from central Minnesota or other areas of Minnesota and are fairly modest people. Theirs some people that stick out when it comes to politics and will voice their opinion outside buildings but that keeps things interesting and lets others (who may be unaware of issues) know whats happening in the world. Most students just wear everyday clothes to class, and if its morning its a sure sign sweat pants will be about half the classes choice!
