As a counterpoint, many of the international students I encountered weren't particularly interested in interacting with students from other backgrounds, or even particularly curious about America. I do remember one student who may have fit the above description in undergrad. He had a heavy accent, (but that's never been a problem with me, most accents are pretty consistent and you can adapt quickly) wasn't doing too well with his studies. He was difficult to engage with in general. However, I was fairly sure he was enjoying the party life when he wasn't in class, and he wasn't interested in interacting with me, or from what I saw, anyone who wasn't from the same background.
