Going into Fairfield I was under the impression that Fairfield was all about diversity. I quickly found out this is not the case. Students here, in general, are white, middle to upper class, spoiled, sheltered, and from some nice little perfect town somewhere along the northern east coast. Of course this is only a generalization, and many students here at Fairfield do not fit this mold (although a majority do). It's easy to feel out of place here if you're not beautiful, love to drink until you black out, and have a mommy and daddy with a huge disposable income, however if you are like this, you can find people similar to you if you look hard enough. The students here are quick to form cliques and to ignore everyone else. It's kind of like high school all over again. Although this is a very negative depiction of the students at Fairfield, I promise it's not all bad. You just have to find where you fit in, and stick with it. Sometimes you have to exit your comfort zone, and sometimes you'll be rejected, but in the end you'll find your niche.
