[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]U'Chicago is extremely liberal. It is not an ideal place for a conservative. Source- a good friend who attends there right now. Yes, they made the stance about safe spaces and such, but most students don't agree with it. There was an out-lash by students against it, actually, who felt that it was threatening marginalized groups.

You'll find groups of conservatives at U'Chicago and all of the Ivies, but it is disingenuous to claim U'Chicago is something its university peers are not. [/quote]

If conservative students need the entire student body to agree with them in order to feel comfortable, then who is being the snowflake?  For conservative students who walk the walk the goal shouldn't be finding a comfortable campus, but rather a campus where their ideas will be taken seriously and faculty will support and challenge them to refine their ideas and engage with peers across the political spectrum.[/quote]

You'll find people willing to engage and those not willing to engage at every top school in the country. U'Chicago isn't anything special.  [/quote]
