<p>I’ll say most people here are liberal. The LBGBT community is very open and friendly and most people here support gay rights and lean towards the left. However, I also have numerous friends who are extremely vocal about their support for conservative issues and who write for the conservative publications on campus --the pro-life movement here seems to be particularly strong. I will say though, that most students on campus will NOT tolerate bigotry or personal attacks against people because of their race, gender, political views, or sexual orientation, especially blatant labeling.
The religious community here is also pretty large from what I’ve seen. Def. no “shunning” or anything like that, people will respect your views as long as you respect others. Though I will say, most people here, even the “traditionally” religious ones, are more left leaning than those you are probably accustomed to.</p>
