? Why is st Lawrence sandwiched in here?


I went to St. Lawrence and am highly offended being on a list with these other two schools!


Ditto, has to be a mistake. They have nothing whatsoever in common.

Michigan & Wisconsin are quite woke. Better to try U of Iowa, Iowa State, or Oklahoma.

Non-Jesuit Catholic schools would be good too (and I’m a BC grad).

It’s so telling when people use the word “woke.” I only hear that word on one channel and they’re usually saying something nonsensical. Tell me who you are without telling me. Lol

My guess is that the big flagship state universities will have a lot of what OP is looking for. And Southern schools. Don't rule out places like Wake Forest, which may have wealthier students but there will be a range of kids too. Vanderbilt. U of Chicago. LACs like Denison. Claremont McKenna?


Greek life is big at all the Southern schools including Wake and Vandy, which also skew wealthy.

18-22 year olds are impressionable, so yes it is a problem when professors that they are taught to respect brainwash them with looney ideas.

Yep. Pro-Hamas protestors attacked a Jewish student group recently and threw a brick through the president's window. Within the past few years BLM protestors have attacked ACLU speakers (who knows for what).
