Yes this is a homogenous school. Predominantly white Catholic. I do not know all the departments but speaking as a Music and Theater double major, i have found many people in those areas to be very open-minded and tolerant. I have never run into a problem with voicing my opinions and differing with others. The religion does happen to be there and most people attend mass, but it is never something that is forced. The real sense of Catholicism that is so often downplayed by critics are the several outreach and charity organizations that are run by campus ministry. PC is not in the greatest of neighborhoods - I was part of a group called "Christmas in April" where we spent an afternoon painting a local elementary school and cleaning up the surrounding yards. There are student run groups who teach adult literacy, child care and volunteer at the local hospital. The student body has an unbelieveable sense of community. Most people drink, but i personally do not and never found this to be a problem. There were so many other activities going on that i never felt like i had to. I am involved in almost 10 different activites on campus and would probably be doing more if i had the time. It is easy for any college student to fall into a rut and if they dont find something straight away, they give up. At PC, if one gives any effort, he/she will find so many other groups to keep them occupied and people who they get along with in those groups. I was also very involved in a Gay/Straight ALliance group in my high school and was comforted to know that there is SHEPARD Chapter that is slowly but surely helping with tolerance.
