<p>I am trying to identify various schools of rigor that have a fairly large conservative population. I don't drink, I am very modest and prefer single sex dorms (though I realize that I will be lucky to have single sex floors at most schools). I do not mind diversity on campus for it makes life fun and interesting, however, I wish to find quite a few like-minded students where I can be accepted and not viewed as a total outcast. </p>
<p>I have looked at Notre Dame and Boston College but the athletics are not a good fit for me. In addition to JHU, I am also looking at Rice, Emory, Cornell, Denison, maybe Duke and maybe Georgia Tech. I will be a science major, perhaps pre-med. So, I am requesting your suggestions. Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>JHU is quite apolitical, but from my experience if you are looking for “christian college” conservatism JHU isn’t the place for you. JHU has diverse population and during spring fair when we have the crazy religious right wing nutters posting their graphic inappropriate anti abortion pictures we always have larger counter protests by students.</p>
<p>Perhaps Vanderbilt and Wake Forest?</p>
<p>I have found plenty of conservatives on campus. Granted, like most upper-tier east coast colleges, most students are liberal from what I found, but there is a healthy conservative population on campus. There is also substance free dorm options and healthy living options (Rogers house) for the first two years if you are into that. Additionally there are several religious groups on campus if you are into that. There are plenty of different types of people here, so you will not be the only conservative/liberal/whatever on campus.</p>
