<p>This year, I founded a Young Republican Club at my school. I know that most college students, professors, and admissions counselors are liberals. I'm not a staunch conservative, but I thought my school's political atmosphere was completely one sided. Should I put this on my application or leave it out? I am in plenty of extracurriculars, so it's not like I "need" this on my application.</p>
<p>I definitely wouldn't leave something off of an application because you fear the political connotations it expresses. Would you even want to go to a school that would reject you for encouraging bipartisan discourse? There are republicans at Pomona too, who were quite active in high school, and they didn't seem to have any trouble.</p>
