I want to go to Bard but I am scared because I am black?

Well, I'd go for it. Don't let fear stop you from achieving what you want in life. (I'm in my 30s) I have a friend who went to Oberlein, which is supposed to be ok, racially speaking, and she had issues there. So, I'm just saying, bad things can happen anywhere, and good things also. Don't let fear hinder your decisions. I haven't heard anything bad about Bard, or any of the Universities in New York. Bard's well respected, so I say go for it.
