Drake university in the late 1950s and early 1960s was a racist school.

The greek system was seperated by ethnic and religious sections, In fact the average student was from a small town or suburb and was ignorant of big city urban life. Most students associated New YTork with "Jews" which was so absurd it defies further explanation. My roomate was Jewish so therefore\in the eyes of these future Babbits and rubes, I was~!! Whe I rushed for all the fraternities, only the Jewish frat(Imagine the concept of fraternity limited to your religion) who offered me as a member. The athletes were even worse. Drake tried to keep them holed up in a couple dorms, not to scare other students away. The only students that were mature were the vets. They understood like much better than th eother students. Now, abour academics: The school was fairly good when you discounted all the shacks that held classes and were named temporary buildings. In summary, I.m sure Drake has a more diverse student population fifty years later, but I should have taken Uncle Tom's advice and gone to Columbia.
