This is an absolute lie. Do you have any idea how transparent your trolling is?


You will see them at both, tbh


Again: an absolute lie. I'm very familiar with both schools. Sounds like you just have a huge chip on your shoulder because you and/or your kids didn't get into either school.

We were just there. It wasn’t any more conservative or liberal than any other school. Plenty of different groups - everyone can find their place.

I wish more colleges were moderate/moderate right. I think colleges are so busy doing social justice BS that they are failing to focus on education and skills needed for industry. I welcome colleges that look at education as having an obligation to provide results. There are conservative values - the leftists never talk about actual education at these schools. I would not call the religious schools conservative in that sense, the are wacko right, their own little factions of religious extremism.


This is what you think is happening at colleges--not what actually is. Kids are learning more in-depth research skills across all the disciplines more than they ever have. That's what I see as key to a college education. They can pick up industry-specific skills as needed if they have core disciplinary understandings and research skills.

Some people are only familiar with southern schools and don’t realize that the straw hat/fancy dress/corsage stuff is a regional thing. Most of the country would think Tech leans conservative.

My husband went to W&L and didn’t realize how much of an old south vibe it had until we did college visits for our son in other parts of the country.
