Summer session at my university always brings on a change in demographics. Gone are the pasty faces, replaced by a multitude of ethnicity. In the fall, minorities average (I'm guessing.) in at about 15% for general courses like Psychology, History, and English credits. Courses that draw a specific audience like Native Studies, Black Studies also allow for the majority to attend, and usually make up the most of the population as well. Simply put, even for specialized courses, minority numbers still can't compete with a predominantly white population overall.
During Summer Session, however, the numbers get mixed up a little. International students tend to stay for the session to acquire more credits to shorten their overall length in town. Locals have summer jobs lined up, so rarely attend this short session. The majority of students tend to go back home until Fall session. Looking around in the library, there is only one person not of-color here. Does it make a difference? Yes, for many political reasons. But, this gets overlooked, by sheer numbers of overrepresentation. Lost on the wayside.
Visually, however, it is an interesting statement to see the shoe on the other foot.
