Michigan colleges with diverse student bodies

I'm a junior currently living in Michigan, and I really want to stay in-state for college. However, diversity is also really important to me. Can you guys share some colleges in Michigan that are particularly known for their diverse student bodies?

Sure, I can give you a few examples of colleges in Michigan known for their diverse student bodies:

1. University of Michigan - Ann Arbor: Known for its efforts in promoting inclusion and diversity. With over 6,000 international students from more than 120 countries, U of M also has several programs in place to foster diversity and inclusivity, including the Wolverines Pathways, a free year-round college prep program for high school students in surrounding neighborhoods.

2. Michigan State University: MSU is known for its vibrant international student community and has one of the largest populations of international students among public universities in the U.S. The University's Office for Inclusion and Intercultural Initiatives is actively engaged in promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion on campus.

3. Wayne State University: Located in the heart of Detroit, WSU prides itself on being one of the most culturally and ethnically diverse universities in Michigan. It has a vibrant mix of students representing all 50 states and around 70 countries.

4. Western Michigan University: The campus in Kalamazoo also stands out in terms of racial and socioeconomic diversity.

These are just a handful of examples, and it's important to remember that diversity can be defined in many ways besides ethnicity, such as socioeconomic background, sexual orientation, or first-generation college students. While it's important to consider the diversity of the student body as a whole, be sure to look at student groups and resources that might be relevant to you specifically, such as ethnic student associations or LGBTQ+ resources. You might also want to consider visiting the campuses, if feasible, to get a sense of the campus culture and community.
