re: College Students Less Tolerant of Conservatives

Every single one? Want to bet some real money on that? In my experience econ and business profs are overwhelmingly conservative, professional schools and the sciences can be either, and liberal arts tend to be liberal. Different schools have different cultures, and that mix can change.

Business (mgmt, market, MIS and accounting) yes, but Econ strangely ran out of the civics department and had a hard left skew. But yes. Not a single person in those departments who would identify as a conservative. Whereas the Ag department, every one of them a republican.

Now when I say they were liberal, I don't mean it in my normal conservative way of "I really don't care for liberal policies and thus deflect on them". I really loved my Govt and History professors and they subscribed heavily to classic liberalism and I learned a lot about hearing from the other side.
