<p>Ok, pretty helpful in terms of getting a general view, but would appreciate more specifics if possible. If you yourself have a strong political interest what was your MIT experience like? What was the campus like around the 2012 election?</p>
<p>I looked up MIT Dems and MIT Republicans and neither organization seems very active, at least from their websites. And this Tech article: [Where</a> Are the College Democrats? - The Tech](<a href=“http://tech.mit.edu/V129/N50/sealfon.html]Where”>http://tech.mit.edu/V129/N50/sealfon.html) sorta confirms that up to 2009. </p>
<p>I mean, it’s not supposed to be a surprise that MIT students aren’t as politically involved/devoted as Harvard/Yale/etc students, but I still hope there would be some basic levels of activity, right?</p>
