| Wharton at Penn and most of the top engineering powers are full of pretty conservative kids. |

The thing is, these are places that have used to have rational right-wingers, but right-wing now means anti-education and anti-science, so it doesn't apply any more. |

Oxford/Cambridge. They don't believe in AA.
And Oxbridge > HPY, Stanford. |

+1 they scoff at academic acheivement, embrace idiocy and deny science. Let them have Liberty...Liberty U that is. |

They have Liberty University. I found four years Adam and Eve, creationism, and memorizing the names of their 20 thousand descendants very interesting.
However, my favorite was the one about the guy with the big boat and all the animals. Good thing he had a lot of kids because there must have been a lot of poo clean up every morning. I love it at Liberty University. Because they teach creationism you can create your own facts. |

Where did you go to college? No one is talking about parties here, the OP asked about conservatives, which is an ideology. |

Actually, Harvard has taken over in terms of reputation. In the last 15 years, those schools (Oxbridge) have lost a ton of money in terms of endowment. Also, no longer the desirable schools for world leaders. |

I’m not sure if it’s a lack of capability or a lack of interest. It’s easier not to actually think about issues and research data....it frees you to simply regurgitate whatalking points and sound bites you picked up whatever |

So, based on the broad and, often, base generalizations on this thread, I’m going to assume that we can all agree that there is a difference between “right-wing” and “Conservative” these days.
If you’re implying they’re the same, then that’s no different than saying all “Liberals” are “communists.” As for universities, there are Conservatives everywhere. You live among them with ease. |

| George Mason is full of conservatives and ideological right-wingers. Started in the Mercatus Center, now the Scalia law school. |

| Harvard MBA is majority conservative. Same with Wharton. Princeton has a lot of old $$$$ from the South and guess what they vote. |

Oxbridge's accounting is different. They use cost accounting in which all their assets depreciate over time to zero. All historical assets become zero dollars using this method - when in reality, their values are priceless. Oxbridge education compared to the U.S. education is truly priceless and this is due in no small part to their admissions policies of admitting only those who merit Oxbridge education. https://www.quora.com/Why-do-Oxford-and-Cambridge-have-endowments-much-smaller-than-those-of-Harvard-and-Yale-since-they-are-hundreds-of-years-old-and-have-more-alumni-What-accounts-for-the-disparity |
