Is there a difference in student behavior in colleges with primarily low income students?

Asked by Pandora (32191points) January 9th, 2013

When I and my sister went to college, we both attended low income colleges. I don’t remember seeing any hazing or harassment of any kind. In high school yes, but not college. Yet I’ve noticed that it does seem to happen a lot in your more upscale colleges.

Now it could be, simply, times have changed, but I wonder if maybe it has to do with our parents were not the ones paying the bill and so we didn’t have time to be jerks.

I had to attend school and work as did most of the kids who attended. We socialized a little in school during break times but other than that, we went our separate ways.
I would like to hear the view from current college students or college teachers.
