The Iowan Quaker Convention

For the past week, I've been off touring colleges with my brother and grandparents. The most notable part of our trip was when we went to Iowa. In Iowa there is a very pretentious and expensive college called Grinell, which is where we were touring. Originally, that part of the trip was so strange, because since there was so much corn, he decided to start calling Iowa corn, and the corn, Iowa. However, the most memorable part of the WHOLE trip, was when we went on our tour of Grinell.
You see, the thing is, while we were there, the college was hosting a Quaker Convention. Interesting, isn't it. Anyway, we had entered the commons, and while our guide was explaining the club options, I noticed this person behind him walking. They had shoulder length black hair, and were wearing a dress, which would have been find and all, if they had been a girl. Long story short, the Quakers are very accepting people and we should all take a good example from them.
