Babson takes great pride in the diversity found in our student body. Students come from a wide range of geographic locations, ethnicities, cultures, and socio-economic backgrounds. Many Babson students will say that some of the best learning on campus comes from getting to know their fellow students.
International Students - Approximately twenty percent of Babson undergraduates are from 59 countries throughout the world, - Japan, Turkey, Albania, Holland, Vietnam, Sweden, India, to name a few. The globe is shrinking; the business economy is now global. For a hands-on business school like Babson to have such diversity adds a tremendous dimension, not only to the study of business but also to campus life in general. Among this year's first-year class alone, more than 30 languages are spoken!
Multicultural students - Campus life is enriched by the diverse contributions of our multicultural students -African-American, Latino, Asian, and Native American men and women who come to Babson from throughout the United States. These students share their experiences through multicultural programs, student organizations, and other campus events and activities such as: Black History Month, Women's History Month, Asian Heritage Month, and Multicultural Week.
Cultural groups on campus include: AMAN - South Asian Student Association, Babson Asian Pacific Student Association, Babson Latin American Forum, Babson Pakistanian Organization, Black Student Union, Hillel, and the Intercultural Student Association. |
