[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have read through this thread. [b]Why are the SLAC/LAC supporters so angry ?[/b] They come across as unhinged and militant.[/quote]

Really? I think it's the anti-LAC crowd that seems unhinged/militant. [b]Why do they care so much that some students prefer a small college?[/b][/quote]

Not the PP to whom you're responding, but: I think the answer in many cases is that they get so worked up because they belive LACs are hotbeds of liberal politics, not just "liberal arts." My DC goes to a LAC which is, indeed, a hotbed of liberal beliefs, but how my DC's attendance there affects the anti-LAC militants or their kids is just beyond me. [/quote]

I do think you are on to something. The only person I know in real life who hates SLACs is also a literally crazy MAGA person. I had not made the connection but I think you are right. [/quote]

WOW ! I suspect that you might have a bit too much time on your hands. A ridiculous "observation" such as this reflects more on the poster than it does the target.

We get it. You want to promote LACs by denigrating those whom you perceive to disagree with you. Getting old--and I doubt that you are helping your cause.

Why not take a more mature approach to presenting your views.[/quote]

Interesting how insanely heated and paranoid your response is. You aren’t doing a lot to dissuade me from the position that people who hate SLACs are pretty unhinged and probably MAGA. I don’t have a personal connection to them, either. [/quote]

Okay. Sure. Very persuasive.[/quote]
