Unity in Diversity

At Clark you will meet people from all over the world - nearly 90 different countries in fact! Despite such diversity, Clark is a warm and friendly place where differences are respected and embraced. In Princeton Review's 2004 Edition of the Best 351 Colleges, Clark was ranked 8th in all of North America for the diversity of the student body here, yet we ranked 2nd for the frequency and ease with which students from different backgrounds are able to interact.

How can such diversity be so friendly and welcoming? Find out first hand from our students:
