[quote=Anonymous]OP again. Thank you to the parents posting and especially to the student who shared firsthand experience. The groupthink and curricular changes are exactly what I’m worried about, which is sad because I love everything else I know about the school. I know a handful of college kids who recently went to politically progressive schools that matched their beliefs. All ended up feeling like they couldn’t engage in debate the way I did back in the day at a liberal SLAC. Constant litmus testing. They envied their STEM counterparts who were more insulated from the expectations. But at least they are adults…

My hope is that the pendulum will swing again and, say, US history will make a resurgence but without the reflexive hero worship of the founding fathers, etc.

TBH,  I would still prefer this school environment to a conservative one for DC, but I wish I could find something more “neutral,” where a student would feel comfortable respectfully questioning the dogma of the day. Does the student PP have any suggestions?
