When people observe high schools, community colleges, or universities from the outside, students appear to constitute a cohesive, uniform group.
However, the student subculture is actually much more complex and diverse.
High school cliques and social groups may crop up based on race, social class, physical attractiveness, placement in courses, athletic ability, and leadership roles in the school and community.
In his classic community study of "Elm town," August Hollingshead (1975) found some 259 distinct cliques in a single high school.
These cliques, whose average size was five, were centered on the school itself, on recreational activities, and on religious and community groups.
