<p>Mostly very conservative.</p>

<p>Young</a> America's Foundation In The News</p>

2

<p>What? No Ivies? Thanks for the warning.</p>

3

<p>Brigham Young University and Patrick Henry College didn’t make it – that’s pretty scary…</p>

4

<p>I thought college was a time to broaden ones mind?</p>

5

<p>BYU and Patrick Henry were mentioned as honorable mentions…</p>

6

<p>

</p>

<p>That sounds dangerous. Like mind expanding DRUGS!!!</p>

<p>We already have all the answers. They are right here in this one book.</p>

<p>Thinking can just get you in trouble.</p>

<p>Does it surprise anyone that the conservative colleges list is populated by schools with doctrinal attachments to various religions? As conservatives bemoan the “liberal bias” of most colleges… the conservative ones are unabashed about their biases. ;)</p>

8

<p>Is there a similar list for most liberal colleges?</p>

<p>Here is a list. Haven’t read it (yet). [Top</a> 10 Most Liberal Colleges - MSN Encarta](<a href=“http://spotlight.encarta.msn.com/Features/encnet_Departments_College_default_article_10schoolsPoliticallyLiberal08.html]Top”>http://spotlight.encarta.msn.com/Features/encnet_Departments_College_default_article_10schoolsPoliticallyLiberal08.html)</p>

<p>I think the link is for 2008. Here’s a list for religious/nonreligious for 2007.</p>

<p>what, no Army, Navy, Air Force? :rolleyes:</p>

11

<p>Amusingly enough, our rabbi went to Bard (#2 least religious). </p>

<p>Interesting that in the list of top 10 conservative colleges, only one appears to be non-religiously affiliated. I suppose that reflects the bias of the list makers–or are there truly no “secular” conservative colleges?</p>

12

<p>Well, Hebrew Union and Yeshiva weren’t on the list either.</p>

13

<p>If you are liberal, attending a conservative college would broaden your mind. Likewise, if you are conservative, attending a liberal college would broaden your mind. Lots of people are liberals, so I think attending a conservative college for them would definitely broaden their minds.</p>

<p>timely: Isn’t that a form of miscegenation?</p>

<p>Think of what might happen if far right moralist-conservatives and off the chart social engineering-liberals actually were forced to have a dialogue? Could there be “moderates” born of this union?</p>

<p>NOT.</p>

15

<p>The service academies are extremely diverse. I know you’ll find that there are students with many different political and religious beliefs.</p>

16

<p>

Yes, this is why one should probably avoid the top ten of either pole. Is there a top ten list of the ‘most balanced’ colleges?</p>

17

<p>the service academies - seems the Air Force academy isn’t so diverse anymore…at least many don’t want it to be</p>

<p>I thought it interesting that four of the top ten conservative schools were Catholic.</p>

<p>Oooh, O7Dad is goood.. I almost want to ask for some bizarre request now…like which schools have the most red-heads… to see what he can deliver.</p>
