    I know some people will bash me for this, but IMO this film could have been better served by a more racially diverse cast. Hollywood is the worst at upholding this kind of institutionalized thinking.

        I don't know what school this was modeled after though I've heard some suggestions but any Eastern established LAC should not have much diversity because they don't.

          The roommate was the only non-White person in this film that I can remember.

            Why does every film "need" diversity? In what way would that have improved the film?
            I agree that when it makes sense, there should be some culturally/ethnically diverse casting. A lot of people criticize the show Friends for taking place in NYC but very rarely showing anything but a white face. And that I agree with. It would have made more sense for that show to have featured a more diverse group of people.
            But this movie took place at an artsy, seemingly small college in Ohio. You're probably not going to see a lot of diversity there.
            Not trying to bash you, but I just don't see what the difference would have been in this particular instance.

              I agree. Representation matters.
