Our country is constantly referred to as a "melting pot" - although a cliché term, we can't deny its truth. I reside on a street where Albanians, Muslims, Asians, African-Americans, Indians, Italians, Poles, Jews, Germans and Mexicans all live together. If your street doesn't look like this, just take a look at our campus.
