I am planning to attend American but I am concerned by the intolerance of conservatism that seems aparent on campus and with professors. I am a moderate conservative and I am very accepting of everyone different from me and I respect other belief systems, but will speaking up in class or during debate land me with a bad grade or no friends? I am well aware of the liberal climate and believe it would be a useful tool for personal growth but I am very politically inclined and i also want to be able to voice my opinions without being judged, targeted, or harassed— things that I have heard happens to other more conservative students. how concerned about this should I be in concidering attending au? is this really an overarching sentiment that I need to be cognizant of?
