Sometimes, I only post to remind people of this. :p

I also live in a city where there's so much diversity

Hmmm... I live in what is often the most diverse city in Australia, and no, not Melbourne. This is a tiny, tiny, mining and steel city, full of bogan, ferals, and international immigrants.

To clear things up for you, In the U.S. , 'tailgates' are basically celebrating (pregaming) before a big university sports game. In the stadium parking lots, students/alumni drink, eat, bbq, etc. in the back of their trucks with the literal tail-gate down and being used as a surface for the drinks or as a seat.

Sounds vaguely like a ute muster. But more uni sports based....

school spirit gear

What is that? Are your schools haunted?

Frats and sororities tend to have bad reputations because of how they are portrayed in movies as well as the news stories of the inappropriate things that members have done recently or terrible traditions that needed to be removed.

They are also excessively an american concept, and are not particularly diverse in theme, since they're not a thing in most of the world.

I saw someone mention a pool table and that would be pretty cool to have at bars or lounge areas around campus.

Around the campus? They're usually on the campus of the larger universities in Australia. Most people turned 18 during their final year of school, and for the handful that didn't, no one is checking their id when someone else at the table buys a jug of beer.

By school trips, I meant like observing environments. Not silly school trips from high school. I guess for my major it was a bit different, but like for example, in my construction class, we would visit construction sites or go to warehouses that manufactured materials and etc.

There was nothing silly about our school trip. In year 9, we visited a bunch of major workplaces, factories, labs, etc.

I know medical students have mock-up hospital rooms and they shadow doctors at actual hospitals. Law enforcement has mock crime scenes. Theater students have their auditoriums and host shows, concerts, etc.

That's not done as trips here, that's a part of the facilities for the course.
