Left-Wing Artsy schools?

I second Bard and Earlham. I think most state shools would tend not to have the vibe you’re looking for in the the N East, though in NY you might consider New Paltz, as one person suggested, and Purchase, the state arts convervatory school

And though its in the midwest, not the Northeast you might also think about McAlester, out there in St.Paul (Minneapolis.) Its one of the few top LA schools in a major city, very international, very politically active, and the arts scene in the twin Cities (and on campus) I’ve been told by friends whose kids attend is very good. FA for these folks was quite good and it might be for you too – they say that they will meet full demonstrated need, though I imagine loans would be part of that.
