Abstract
Africans and African Americans on the Iowa State University campus have faced difficulty integrating into a prominent and distinguished community. Despite similar heritages and experiences, these two groups have been unable to unite due to cultural, economical, and background differences. We will illustrate this challenge through testimonials, surveys, and case study analysis of the atmosphere at Iowa State. Our goal is to provide insight to these specific ethnic issues and make a step toward a stronger and diverse community.
