Response to Costa Rican poster
-

I think the Costa Rican poster would feel very comfortable in Bozeman. It's true that the large majority of people here are white. This is SLOWLY starting to change. That being said, there is a group of Costa Rican students that come to town on a foreign exhange every summer, and there are many others from different countries. I'm a member of a Spanish conversation club who would love the opportunity to practice with a native speaker! Our university here means that Bozemanites tend to be more open to different cultures than those in some other towns. Just be ready for the visual shock if you're coming from a place with a lot of ethnic diversity.
