As you might have assumed correctly, coming from San Francisco, im fairly liberal with regards to my politics. I noticed that PR ranks UofC as one of the top 20 schools for political activism, but tehy didn make the list for either having a conservative or liberal tilt. I’m just wondering what you all think about politics, and such.
A school that claims John Ashcroft, Paul Wolfowitz and Milton Friedman as some of its most distinguished alumni kinda scares me off a bit. (no joke about the first two, check the “notable alumni” feature under “About U Chicago”
I make a presumption that all intellectuals are liberal ( ), so Im hoping that chicago would be no different. Any thoughts?
