<p>America's numero uno conservative college.Patrick Henry sent six of his sons to HSC.A serious,conservative student could find no happier place to be!</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that in todays college environment that moderate is considered conservative. There appear to be many more shades of liberalism...</p>
<p>My suggestion would be to pick some schools that you are interested in and find the school on facebook and ask kids there how they would describe it, and how open they are to people from the other side. Pick schools you're interested in first; rule them out for their political leanings second.</p>
<p>I would guess that the service academies are the most conservative.....</p>
<p>I'd say that the most conservative would probably be Brigham Young, colleges that are afflilated with traditionally conservative religions, and the service academies.</p>
<p>which schools are fiscally conservative but socially liberal</p>
<p>I believe this whole thread has been done before... twice.</p>

<p>MRoCkEd, I have heard that UChicago is fiscally conservative but socially liberal</p>
<p>Berkeley is the most liberal...trust me, I go there.</p>
<p>I once did a similar Facebook poll: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/375517-my-unscientific-facebook-survey-college-politics.html?highlight=Facebook+politics%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-search-selection/375517-my-unscientific-facebook-survey-college-politics.html?highlight=Facebook+politics</a></p>
<p>Facebook recently changed their format so that you can list anything you want as your political views (even something stupid like Mariah Caryism). The bad thing is that it no longer enables statistics on this field.</p>
<p>To name just a few:</p>
<p>Bard, Goddard, Bennington, Marlboro, Reed, Grinnell, Carleton, Swartmore, Smith, New College, The Evergreen State College, UC-B, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Hendrix, Wesleyan, Bard, Brown, Columbia, Earlham, Beloit, Hampshire, Colorado College, Sarah Lawrence...</p>
<p>Penn is pretty socially-liberal/fiscally-conservative, probably because of the huge business/econ focus.</p>
<p>Reed - the most liberal of all..</p>
<p>I'm surprised no one has mentioned Texas A&M, very conservative.</p>
<p>hello guys!</p>
<p>^ Hello. I see you are new, so what are your opinions on this topic?</p>
<p>Aside from Christian colleges like Patrick Henry College and the service academies, somebody who wants a fine education in a somewhat conservative political environment is best served by looking into southern schools like W&M, WFU, Washington and Lee University. </p>
<p>I don't understand, however, why the politics of a student body is so important in college selection. Sure, a conservative kid probably wouldn't have the best time in the 1960s at Cal, and a homosexual or leftist probably wouldn't have the best time at BYU or Regent or Liberty or PHC. But in the vast majority of cases, such extremes are rarely found and easily avoided.</p>
<p>The reason why politics is important for conservatives is largely because they are discriminated against at many colleges. (e.g. month long court process for students who protested by stomping on Hezbollah's flag, or students being punished for creating a satire of a feminist newsletter)</p>
<p>Furthermore, the ratio of professors who are democrats to those who are republicans is staggeringly off balance. (atleast at the top 32 universities) The most balanced faculty of the top 32 was Northwestern U where dems outnumbered reps 4:1. The worst was Brown U where dems outnumber reps 30:1.</p>
<p>For liberals there aren't as many problems. The only issues arrive when colleges do not fund or accept certain groups. (e.g. Georgetown will not recognize "Hoyas for Choice")</p>
<p>Alex> What schools were involved in the punishments you listed? (Interested)</p>
<p>Alex is one of the most deluded people I have ever seen.</p>
<p>what does court process have to do with the college administration? how is that "discrimination" on the part of the college?</p>
<p>and liberals don't have as many problems? wow, i didn't know that the many liberal activists have it so much easier. back it up. yes, it's not so just because you think so.</p>
<p>it is true that faculties are usually more liberal. so? show me how that means conservatives are being discriminated against.</p>
