[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it possible to thrive at Macalester if you're not woke and lean more conservative?[/quote]

Sure, but be prepared to be challenged. Those who enjoy a good debate will have endless opportunities to engage. It is not a place to find your conservative bubble where you can take comfort in being surrounded by like-minded folks, though. [/quote]

Not looking for an echo chamber, but there's a difference between being "challenged" and being ostracized. Can a conservative student have reasonable assistance that Macalester offers more of the former than the latter?[/quote]
Not if they go around calling other students “woke”. That doesn’t signal willingness to have good-faith conversations about liberal and conservative differences. [/quote]

Are most Mac students not woke?[/quote]
Regardless of whether the liberal students would fit your definition of “woke,” slapping pejorative labels on them from the start is only going to have them calling you maga (or maggot) and start a fight. It is actually possible to have non-flaming discussions between liberals and conservatives, but not if you start with insults. [/quote]
