Isn't Berkley considered synonymous with "LIBERAL"? |
it is, but there are a lot of extremely conservative undergrads there as well, while some of the faculty is very liberal. |

| I went to the University of Washington in Seattle. It's pretty expensive for out-of-staters, but it's so liberal I swear nearly every teacher made some derogatory reference to president Bush. Once in a while the college Republicans make some outlandish scene, but are then proptly chastized by the billions of minority groups. |

Umm... pointing out the obvious does not make one "liberal". Heck, even conservative republicans are now saying "Damn, that Texas cracka be crazy, yo!" |

Why do you want a liberal college? So you can have the same views as everyone else, and not have them threatened or challenged by someone with views from the opposite side of the political spectrum?
I'm not helping you find anything. |
dude. what?
of course i want debate.
it just sucked at Marist cuz everyone was an upperclass abercrombie wearing cliqy person who was all about getting drunk all the time.
i want a school where i can meet openminded cool down to earth people. ya dig?
thanks for the suggestions. I've thought about Rutgers, but the campus is way too big. I guess i'm stuck instate cuz every decent school i find is to expensive for out of state. :/ what if i go to europe? that's a possibility |

there are microcosms within Rutgers. For example, there were only 500 people in my graduating class in my college, and 60 in my major. I had the same people in all my classes for 3 years. It might be a little different in Rutgers College (liberal arts) but you still find your social circle. You don't have to be intimidated because it is a big organization. |

im glad you liked rutgers. but after being in jersey for so long i decided that i can't stand the cold, i need somewhere warm. so i might have figured it out. california!
i have a plan, if i go to a community college there, claim residency, get honors (3.0 gpa) then i can transfer to a state school and get in-state tuition, and probably a scholarship. california seems perfect, it's warm, it has liberal openminded people, and i can go to a school thats in a city. does this sound realistic? |

They don't even have finals really, just an evaluation at the end of the class................................. some even let you do a self-eval... hahahaha
My cousins boyfriend went there, said they offered a class called like "Life and Meditation" you'd get a full class credit if you promised to meditate every day for an hour....
Seriously though it sounds like a fun school, my best friend goes there, another one of my best friends might go there, and my brother is probably going... (AND MY MOM TOO FOR SOME REASON!?) |
