California to Boston

For my diversity post I decided to do a simple one, moving from California to Boston and how differently diverse it is. For starters there are not merely as many foreigners in San Diego than there are here. The fact that there are simply 100 and something different colleges in Boston there are people that range from every type of religion, ethnicity, and sexual orientations. San Diego has many Mexicans because of the boarder but rarely do we see people from Asia, Russia, South America, etc. The change is quite amazing and is an experience that I am sure cannot be experienced anywhere else but here. Walking is the major form of getting places here but in San Diego it was impossible to walk as much as you can here and get to where you want. Diversity is a great topic to see where everyones mind is at and how they think. That is why I believe that the guest speaker we had about diversity and the Universities involvement is so important. Coming from someone that is across the continent diversity may as well be different. Probably not as different than someones experience with it if they were from Asia, South America, or Europe but it varies.
