<p>Out of these schools, which are considered to be the most liberal or conservative? I know Scranton is kinda conservative and Rutgers and UW-Madison are liberal, but how liberal/conservative are they? Is one significantly more liberal/conservative than the others? Thanks.</p>

<p>UW-Madison is fairly liberal and is in a very liberal small city. But it is a huge university and attracts people with a wide range of political views. As the state flagship it attracts many of the best and brightest students from around Wisconsin, which is fairly conservative outside Madison, Milwaukee and a few other areas. I think almost anyone would feel comfortable there.</p>
<p>The conservative aligned [CollegeGuide.org</a> - Home](<a href=“http://www.collegeguide.org%5DCollegeGuide.org”>http://www.collegeguide.org) has red/yellow/green light ratings for what they see as the political environment. Green lights indicate conservative schools (many of which are religious schools). Red lights indicate the opposite.</p>
<p>Thanks to both of you!</p>
<p>Scranton may be Catholic, but it is run by the Jesuits and more socially liberal than you might expect.</p>
<p>Was just going to say something similar to levarfan. I don’t see Scranton as being conservative at all. I live nearby and have friends who teach there.</p>

<p>Wisconsin gets a yellow light from the conservative ISI College Guide.</p>
<p>This info may be very outdated but my grandfather went to UW-Madison for undergrad and grad for Economics in the 30’s and I always that it was quite liberal. Maybe it has changed.</p>
<p>Madison is one of the most liberal cities you will find, but the university draws from all the rural cities around Wisconsin where there are far more conservatives.</p>
