<p>I was recently accepted at Rose Hill. I am VERY liberal, politically, and it is important to me that I have a sizable group of others with the same views. Someone told me that Fordham has a very diverse political population, so I assumed that at Rose Hill I would have fellow liberals as well as conservatives and moderates with which to debate. Perfect. However, in reading more about the school, it appears that Lincoln Center is very liberal. Is Rose Hill very conservative? I chose Rose Hill because of the IPE major (I applied as English, but would consider switching to IPE) and the campus, but if it is very conservative I might call admissions to see if I can switch to LC. Can anyone provide more insight on the matter? Thank you!</p>
<p>I'm throwing a punch in the dark here, but assuming that it's NYC, I'd say there's going to be a heavy population of liberals and a decent portion of everything in between the political spectrum at Fordham.</p>
<p>lincoln center is more liberal in the sense that has all the theatre majors but i have friends that go to fordham rose hill and most people are liberal. you also have to consider of course there are going to be conservatives. its a jesuit school. fordham doesnt have a rep to being a religious catholic school? if thats possible. its not notre dame</p>
<p>I'm very liberal too, and am in all likelihood (sp?) going to Rose Hill, so there'll be at least two of us!</p>
<p>lol. I'm sure there are liberals. There are 8000 undergrads, SOME of them have to be on the left!</p>
<p>you do not even have to even consider worrying about finding other liberals in college...polls show liberals account for nearly 66% of college students while conservatives account for 33%...i myself being one of the 33%</p>
<p>It's New York, I really don't think you have to worry about finding liberals. I'm a liberal, but I did apply to the Lincoln Center. lol.</p>
<p>I'm going to CBA which is at Rose Hill and I'm extremely liberal so that means there are at least three of us. Life would be pretty boring without conservatives to argue with but I don't think you need to worry about it too much because New York is a very liberal city.</p>
<p>as far as the political spectrum goes at rose hill, there's a bit of both here. i don't participate in any political events on campus, but just talking to people it's a decent mix. perhaps a bit more liberal than anything else, but i've seen conservative students talk out in class so they exist.</p>
<p>as far as LC being more liberal, I think that's because all the arts people are there for the most part. a former roommate of mine went there his first semester and transferred out because it was way too liberal for him. he's a new yorker and liberal, but some of the people there were just 'out there'.</p>
<p>I'm pretty much as liberal as they come, and I've never had any trouble finding people who are like-minded at Rose Hill. There are conservatives here, but from my experience, I'd have to say they're definitely a minority.</p>
