How Liberal is SCU?

Again, if you’re looking for a Bard or Wellesley style activism, SCU is not the place for you. I can’t speak very much to the strength of the political science department. I PolySci 1 just for fun and it was a good intro level class, but I’m not qualified to speak to the quality of the department as a whole.

I’m a little more qualified to speak about the philosophy department. I’ve taken two courses in that department. The professors are very involved, as are the students.

What other schools are you looking into? Most schools have an admitted students day and this includes SCU. I recommend attending one for your top choices. Since you’re in the Bay Area, it wouldn’t hurt to attend ours.
