Name some colleges where intellectual conversations "for fun" are common?

And in fact, one way to seek those clusters out probably is by major. I went to Michigan, and the most intellectual people I knew were generally in LS&A. I knew lots of business & engineering majors, and most of them just didn’t spend much energy or have much interest on truly intellectual pursuits. I found those types more in high level English classes, for example.

Some engineering students are quite intellectually minded about subjects they like. However, intellectual discussions about advanced engineering topics may not be easily understandable to other students.
