Before coming Knox, everyone in Knox faculty, students, everyone, they told me it was really diverse. They don't know what diverse means. People here are pretty ignorant. Well, as someone that carries the definition of globalization, I would say anyone that stayed and lived in one place (such as United States) can be considered ignorant. Oh, I don't blame them. If you live in one place all your fucking life, the whole fucking world is gonna be that certain place. But for us, multicultural people, the world is too big. So I guess Knox should stop promoting diversity as part of their education. Before coming here I thought I was going to be surrounded by international students (as it is in Macalester), however, I am surrounded by a sea of white people. Nothing against white people, but talking about stereotypes, white people are known for being ignorant. They say they are not racist, oh, I disagree, Institutional racism is predominating in Knox They don't show it, but you can feel it. Knox is heaven for LGBT and everyone accepts them. Economic classes do not really conflict (there's nowhere to spend money in Galesburg anyways). Most of Knox students are little birds, that were pressured by their parents all their lives, in an attempt to keep them "innocent", and when they come to college, these little birds experience "the real world". So what happens? They loose control. Many of Knox students were either home-schooled, when to a all-girl highschool, never drank, never smoked, never did drugs, and not to mention their virginity. They go through what me and my friends went through 7 years ago, when we were 12. Yeah I know, United States is sheltered. People here grow up slower than in other places. Americans deny this fact. Well, I guess you, that never lived anywhere else, don't sound like someone that should have an opinion about this, do you? I am not saying that this makes us better, but I am saying, we experience things before than most Americans do. So, if you are one of those, one those people that never had a boy/girlfriend, never had true friendship, or you just socially awkward, welcome to Knox. This is the place for you. In Knox you will find your friends, and if you get lucky, you will get laid as well. But be careful, Knox is full of drama kings/queens. As I told you, remember the first time your girlfriend broke up with you? How much it hurt? As mentioned above, people here just started tasting the world. So for those that consider themselves experienced and socially apt, go somewhere else. For those of you that are nerds, like anime, socially-awkward, or people just don't consider you normal, again, WELCOME TO KNOX, you will feel this place like heaven.
