Thanks to everyone for the frank responses. I’m quite impressed with my initial visit to this forum as my experience with MANY other forums is far less … well … mature 
“Part of the collegiate experience is being exposed to different perspectives and philosophy, conservatism included. I find it kind of strange that you are concerned about a university not being liberal enough considering colleges across the US are a progressive stronghold.”
The previous response was particularly thought rousing for me. Adam makes an excellent point; one with which I agree. I must admit that as a father, my tendency is to be cautious and (over) protective, so there’s little doubt that my research is tarnished by naivete and false stereotyping. My initial topic question was likely too broad in nature.
If I had it my way, I’d want a student body that was centrist in all aspects. How to find such a university (if there is such a university) and make that determination is an unreasonable expectation. My concerns are more to radical conservatism and liberalism. I equate any radical position to being “unaccepting” of alternative positions. On such a campus, I’d imagine that such “exposure to different perspectives and philosophy” would be quite uncomfortable. In several college forums, I found opinions at WF to be far more conservatively radical than I was ever expecting. Whether that was due to a few particularly disenfranchised students motivated by disappointment, emotion and anger (as someone else pointed out) is beyond my ability to determine, but it is the reason I’ve posted here.
I greatly appreciate the discussion!
