Are any of these colleges "Conservative".
« on: April 29, 2013, 08:58:49 AM »
I know, probably a DUmb question but is one, just one, any one, of these colleges conservative?

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

I found this list called the "dirty dozen" meaning the most liberal - the bolded ones are on your list.  Don't know why they listed Occidental twice.  I would guess that if there are any conservative colleges out there, they would be small private ones.  


1. Occidental College - The Phallus
2. University of California-Los Angeles
3. Amherst College in Massachusetts -
4. University of Pennsylvania -
5. Occidental College - blackness
6. University of Washington
7. Mount Holyoke College -
8. University of Michigan -
9. Johns Hopkins University -  
10. Cornell University -
11. Duke University -
12. Swarthmore College

Occidental College is listed twice because the list isn't necessarily a list of the most liberal colleges. It's a list of COURSES offered by those colleges. Which explains why Occidental College finds it necessary to offer a course called "The Phallus" and a course called "Blackness."

I find it amazing that colleges find it necessary to offer courses for college-level kids that they should've learned in Sex Education in the 6th grade.  :whatever:

And, as everyone knows, "blackness" is merely the absence of light.    :-)

Hey, an "A" in blackness will raise an "F" in math to a GPR/GPA of a 2.0.....DUmmies need that to get their useless degrees.

Top Conservative Colleges

That's interesting to see Grove City on the list. I was accepted there but decided PA would be too cold.

Getting older is mandatory
Growing up is optional
