Just a point contra the “college educated people are liberal because liberals are cool and conservatives are poopy heads” screed a couple posts up. I understand this is a big talking point among certain progressives currently, and yes in this election Democrats and learners were +10 or a bit more among those with college degrees. But this is not a historically normal number, and generally we don’t see significant statistical differences (I think dems were +2-3 in both Obama elections) in voting preference until you get into PhD people, who are overwhelmingly liberal/leaners.
The relevance here is that we also appear to be in a time of super charged politics on campus, and one of the things I would think about during your search is whether any type of activism, etc that you see is really part of the nature of a place or whether it is a response to our peculiar political moment. Hopefully you have some time yet.
