<p>I think you’ll find all kinds of views at Brandeis, and in the end most people find their niche and friends who share their general perspective. Yes, things can sometimes get ugly, just like they can at any college campus about controversial issues, but for the most part outside of that people become friends over other shared interests or activities. And what was particularly admirable was how everyone came together to protest the Westboro Baptist Church. Check out some recent reporting and commentary about this issue here:
