<p>If you would find liberal politicians coming to campus to give speeches offensive, then Yale is not the place for you. Most of my conservative friends were pleasantly surprised at how welcoming Yale is, but they’re the sort of folks who came to New Haven actively hoping to be challenged in their political views. They embrace the many liberal and conservative thinkers who come to campus and work as professors, and enjoy the opportunity to debate prominent politicians of many political persuasions at the YPU. </p>
<p>Yale frequently has liberal and conservative thinkers coming to campus. Many conservative students who come here move left (I’m one of them) and many liberal students move right. Expect to be challenged constantly for four years. If this bothers you, then you may want to reconsider applying.</p>
