Would a DeSantis conservative feel comfortable there? No snarky responses please, just an honest answer.
I'd err on the side of no...actually maybe. Conservatives have a lot of flavors that makes it difficult to tell how liberal students will respond. I think if socially conservative, it's going to be a bad fit, because there will be trans students and queer students, etc. The only good conservative liberal arts college I know of is Hillsdale, but I've heard Davidson is more tolerant to conservative thought.

~42% students of color (including international)
~22% Asian/Asian-American
~11% Black/African-American
~12% Latino/Hispanic
~1% Native American/Alaskan or Native Hawaiian/ Pac Island
That's great, but doesn't make it the most diverse.

Never said it did? Was just offering data for comparison.
Sorry, just keeping consistent with the thread title.

Define diversity. Do you mean race, do you mean a certain race? Are you talking about economic diversity? Geographic?
What is "certain race" diversity?
Also this shuffles the same 4 or 5 LACs no matter which one you apply.
Diversity can mean all races or diversity can decides that Asians aren't actually part of a diverse campus (i.e. the type that got Harvard sued)
Name a campus that is diverse that doesn't have Asian Americans as the highest percentage of students of color. I guess this makes sense if you avoid the big Asian population at Harvard too...
Drop out of the top colleges and you get there. If you want a good mix or poor middle class and rich and a good mix of all races, you're dropping way further down the list than schools DCUM finds acceptable
Most colleges outside of the top colleges are non competitive. You're asking for elite schools that accept everybody...
OP said LAC not SLAC
The SLAC's are still economically, racially, and geographically most diverse...
If you want diversity go to a big state school. These schools are 50% athletes.
