<p>VulgarUnicorn, I understand that. I figured that since many people from the Atlanta area opted to go to UGA, the campus would be more liberal than if it primarily attracted students from the rural parts of the state. The closest analogue I can think of is UC Davis which although located in farmland in a more conservative area, brings in students from the Bay Area, LA, and San Diego thus making it far more liberal than if it just attracted students from inland California. </p>
<p>Anyways, thank you for the reassurance that UGA would be fine for someone like me. That being said, it’s a reach and I was wondering if you or anyone else on the UGA page know similar schools that aren’t oppressively conservative (ex: University of Mississippi) and which offer good geology/ environmental science.</p>
