Does it seem like AU might fit my D?

The science department is not a focus of the University (although I’ve heard rumors that they are changing that but not in the near term) - the main focuses of this school are the School of International Service and the School of Public Affairs. I have spoken to a science major here, however, who told me that they have solid professors who come from Ivy League institutions and he told me that he feels like he’s better positioned here to get more focus by professors than what he would get at a larger science school.

On athletics, there is a small athletics support scene here but it is very small. I have been here for two months now and have only attended one sport event and that was because we were given free food and shirts to attend. While I am only one person, I can say with all honesty that I am not aware of anyone except athletes themselves that attend the games on a regular basis.

The school is very liberal with a solid conservative minority presence in the form of the College Republicans or Young Americans for Liberty. But if she openly speaks about her opinions, she should expect questions and perhaps hostility depending on the person.

Fraternity wise, this school has a fraternity scene but it does not dominate. In my experince, I have not experienced the typical portrayal of fraternities with all of them being very opening. Part of that probably has to do with the fact that the frat brothers being very different from other institutions with a good number of liberal homosexual fraternity brothers in almost all the fraternities. It’s a very open and liberal school which extends into the social fabric of the University.
