<p>Many of the colleges mentioned here are large and diverse, and have students with different political views. It’s more about the balance of students and applicants having a choice. Colleges have different learning environments and students have different interests. </p>
<p>One could make the case that going to any college is putting oneself in a box at that time of their lives. I can think of few incidences in life where people of the same age are housed together in one small area, mostly supported by their families and/or financial aid, and given the opportunity to basically learn. In contrast to living with their families in neighborhoods, college students have less contact with people of different ages, different education levels, and different jobs and this can influence their ideas and political views.</p>
<p>There are many reasons to choose a college, and I don’t know how many people consider politics when they choose one, but, in general, most colleges seem to be predominantly liberal. If choice is to exist, then there has to be other choices. </p>
<p>You don’t have to be a fan of this thread or any of the colleges mentioned, but you could consider yourself fortunate that you have choices. Other students may make different ones.</p>
