<p>According to my 2012 Princeton Review 376 Best Colleges, TAMU is listed as one of the most conservative schools, it’s listed as #3 in this edition. But if you read the actual article, it reports that the reputation is overblown, with most of the student body being in the middle left and right. The Corps of Cadets, 5% of the student body, seems to be responsible for most of the public perception of the school.</p>
<p>Now, if one were a self-described “progressive”, then yes, it would seem like a very conservative place. But to most of the country, TAMU is probably pretty normal.</p>
