<p>Are people liberals or conservatives.
Because if there are too many of either, it might be a deal breaker.
I need a happy medium.</p>
<p>It’s apolitical on the whole. You won’t really happen upon any political discourse that you don’t actively look for.</p>
<p>That’s no fun :(. I’m sure that there are student groups for those then. How about the religious scene?</p>
<p>I don’t have sources on hand, but I read several sources indicating a slightly right leaning bent on campus - fiscally. GT is interesting. Atlanta is very liberal, Georgia is fairly conservative, and you have a slew of OOS students coming from diverse backgrounds. </p>
<p>It’s really a coin-flip I’d say. I haven’t heard of anyone not feeling welcome on the campus of Georgia Tech.</p>
<p>Again for religion, I would expect most of campus to be atypical towards religion. This is due to the fact that younger people tend to be more often atheist/agnostic/apathetic, the STEM oriented campus may attract those who are more based in science than(or in addition to) faith and the socioeconomic status of students tend to be middle class to upper middle class who tend to be less-religious than their poorer counterparts.</p>
<p>That being said, Georgia is in the bible belt and is fairly religious/conservative. Atlanta is fairly liberal, but I think, as a whole, Atlanta is still religious. Atlanta has a high black population. Black Americans tend to value Christianity. Black churches are active in the area. However, campus is not so highly populated by these groups. You also have a fairly high mix of Hindus due to the high international student population from India. High east Asian population as well.</p>
<p>It depends!</p>
<p>As a tech student there are student organizations for several different religions (muslim, hindu, catholic, christian, jewish, baptist, etc) as well as for political parties and all look like very active organizations on campus. </p>
<p>However as stated above tech is a STEM school and most people’s interest lies in math and science rather than religion or politics.Debates about string theory and dark matter get 10x more heated than a conversation over an election or religion.</p>
<p>Although I will say that GT-Emory’s Neuro lab has some neuroethics components that are just outright fascinating. The campus group, GT Neuro should have a world’s worth of events for this fringe science of “neuroethics”</p>
<p>I suppose that’s what happens when you combine a top STEM school, a world class city, a top medical school and a school where the Dali Lama is a professor :P</p>
<p>Karen Rommelfanger is a prominent scholar in the field of Neuroethics. She and other neuroscientists at Emory work closely with those at Tech through Emory and GT’s joint neuro lab.</p>
