Is Washington & Lee University intolerable for a liberal?

I recently applied to W&L and I consider myself more liberal than not. I kinda feel that going to a very liberal school would be surrendering myself to public opinion and staying within (if not delving deeper into) my comfort zone. I want a college experience that’s gonna expose me to different perspectives, all the while allowing discussion in a respectful setting. Being from CA, I’m pretty much surrounded by ultra-left wing propagadists and for me, I’d appreciate going to college with a more healthy political climate (which is part of the reason why I’m applying here). That’s my take on it.
