In the end, I do not think that being conservative/liberal should make a difference when comparing these schools. There are much more important things than political affiliation. The bottom line is: when you walk up to someone on campus, are you going to look them in the eye and say “hey are you a liberal?” or will you shake their hand and say “hey my name is ____” and commence in a general conversation? When you are hanging out with friends, do you say “hey man are you for obama’s health care?” or do you have a good ole fun time? It really shouldn’t be a deal breaker, and at TAMU I have yet to see anyone get called out for their political/religious beliefs. We really are more accepting here than many would believe, but yes we are for the most part conservatives. This is one of those things that from the outside looking in, it is hard to understand and easy to make assumptions.
