<p>The few of you are obviously big liberals. </p>
<p>Here’s a question I want you to think about.</p>
<p>Vanderbilt is obviously a very well rounded school but also has a lot of personality which includes a Southern vibe and a significantly stronger conservative atmosphere on campus than most schools.</p>
<p>What is it about this that attracted you to Vanderbilt so much over other schools? You obviously hate it enough to get all riled up about it and want to “inject more diversity” into the school to make it more appealing to you but maybe less appealing to other people. Why wouldn’t you get all excited about going to a more liberal school instead?</p>
<p>This comment especially cracks me up: “Vanderbilt should impliment questions into their supplement, full of heated questions on racy subjects.” You’re enough excited about the idea of doing that, you can misspell a pretty easy word and not care. Again, you realize that Vandy is fairly conservative and a lot of that old money vibe still exists, meaning a lot of people have been raised to be uncomfortable around an application with “heated racy subjects”. This is also called class. So how can you be SO excited about coming to Vandy just to get in people’s faces and stir things up when you could just as easily go to one of the majority of liberal schools?</p>
<p>Maybe you should take a trip to Natchez, MS, a place where the 1800s are more alive than you might think. A lot of this venting basically comes down to why you think it’s so good to go someplace that is different from where you’re from and change it to be more like where you’re from…</p>
