<p>Wow, this is a true dilemma. You want a hippie school that also offers engineering. There are only a handful of good ones. UC Santa Cruz is the ultimate hippie school, but alas no Environmental Engineering or Aerospace. Pitzer is also a great hippie school but no engineering at all except at its sister school Harvey Mudd. One school that might give you what you want is Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. It has one of the highest ranking undergrad engineering programs in the country and is a leader in both Environmental Engineering and Aerospace. I wouldn’t call it a hippie school, but the city of San Luis Obispo and the Central Coast qualify for sure. Lots of organic farming and vineyards in the area. It is also one of the country’s top surfing schools and very, very outdoors. You’ll find plenty of hippie activities if you scratch the surface. Check it out:</p>
