<p>Is it true that most people at Cal are liberals?</p>
<p>What political party are you guys associated with?</p>
<p>Yes, students at Berkeley tend to be lean left politically compared to the US overall, but that is generally true for college students overall (though some colleges like Liberty University have more right leaning students).</p>
<p>I would read this article :
[Parting</a> thoughts: the need for diversity of opinion - The Daily Californian](<a href=“http://www.dailycal.org/2012/05/11/parting-thoughts-the-need-for-diversity-of-opinion/]Parting”>http://www.dailycal.org/2012/05/11/parting-thoughts-the-need-for-diversity-of-opinion/)</p>
<p>I think he describes students at cal best with : I find that most students and professors are genuinely curious to hear a minority point of view.</p>
<p>Yes, most students are liberal, but the students are also open to different points of view. While republicans may get into a few heated arguments, as long as they are a decent human being, no one will segregate against them (this applies to other parties as well)</p>
<p>Just a quick reminder to everyone - bringing up politics when it’s relevant (like what direction students lean in a particular school) is allowed on CC, but questions like your latter one are not - I’ve had topics deleted before because of this, even though the question was well intended.</p>
<p>Keep in mind, just because a school doesn’t necessarily agree with you politically does not mean you won’t like it there.</p>
