My daughter and you sound very similar in that regard. She is from a fairly conservative region of the country (the Southeast), and was likewise a bit concerned. She Loved her time at Barnard. She was definitely in the political minority, but was still thrilled to be on campus when such things happened as presidential candidates speaking on campus and Hillary Clinton speaking at her graduation. Her horizons were expanded and she is simply a stronger and more confident (and very well educated) version of her best self. :)
