Diversity comes with the friends they keep and how their friends influence their social behaviors. College offers a chance to learn different and very often new perspectives in life and also provides a platform to bridge students' divides or differences. It provides students with a new opportunity to rebuild their lives regardless of their initial life in high school. However, most students do not take advantage of the college's diversity, but instead try to make college life as comfortable as possible. They try to stick to the high school lifestyle as much as possible instead of exploring a different lifestyle. They tend to replicate their high school friends and join groups similar to those they previously belonged to in high school. Instead of taking advantage of the diverse networking opportunities available in college, they maintain friends who are not diverse in their perceptions and lifestyle. “They prefer to keep friends who share the same ideas and beliefs as them and so their characters develop into lifelong habits that remain even after they leave school for the world of work”
