You’re right, gadad, it’s probably an overstatement to say the majority is anti-evolution. I was channeling DD’s recent expressed irritation at a fellow student in Evolutionary Biology class saying in private conversation that of course the course is all rubbish, since she doesn’t believe in evolution. This particular evolution disbeliever is in honors and pre-med.

Thanks for acknowledging that the majority is conservative. As a transplanted northerner I cringe a bit at reading some of the well intentioned statements here and elsewhere. A liberal student from a majority liberal area of the country might have a very interesting experience at UGA and would certainly get a good education. However, it’s a switch when the things people will say casually because they expect everyone within earshot agrees with them, all come from the opposite side of the page than you’re used to.
