<p>when my daughter and i visited dartmouth last year (she’s not attending dartmouth), she asked at a forum of dartmouth students what dartmouth was like politically (at the time she didn’t want to go to a school of overbearing political correctness, but she ended up going to what is probably one of the most politically correct colleges in the USA-- your priorities may change over time as well). she was told that dartmouth ‘has students of every political point of view’. which way the faculty leans she didn’t ask (I’d guess left), but it sounds like wherever you are on the right-left spectrum you’ll find like-minded people at dartmouth.</p>
