We ' re content, even proud of our style of living — but not obsessed v ith it like some other areo schools. Many colleges and universities are compulsed v ith image. They become caught up in a race for sophistication, out-of-control social lives or superior academics. We even things out with a graceful balance of all three. We also might think of ourselves as a diverse and daring group of college kids, but let ' s be realistic. We ' re not as conservative as our friends up the road at Eastern Mennonite College, but comparisons to UCLA seem more unlikely. The JMU community remains generally homogeneous. Most pattern the typical JMU student as a vv ' hite female from northern Virginia. While that does represent three majorities, it does not justify as a stereotype. Last year, there were 350 blacks enrolled, 39 orientals, 34 hispanics and seven Native Americans adding diversity to the campus. By sex, about 55 percent of the student population was female, about 45 percent male. Seventy-nine percent of our students come from in-state, the greatest numbers from northern Virginia and Rockingham County. Of the 21 percent who arrive from out of state, most ore from Maryland, New Jersey and New York respectively. «!(
