MSN ^ | July 27, 2009 | The Princeton Review

Posted on 07/27/2009 7:30:37 PM PDT by ComeUpHigher

Students at these schools don’t venture far off the path that leads to the right. Religion plays a big role in the campus activities, generally, as do morals and character profiles that would make any parent proud. The Princeton Review's survey of 122,000 college students for the 2010 edition of the "Best 371 Colleges" book revealed the top 10 colleges that have conservative campus cultures, especially regarding political persuasion, the use of drugs and alcohol and the level of acceptance of the gay community on campus.

The more Liberalism crept its way into America's culture the more our world spun out of control.

If memory serves--
Prayer out of schools
Commandments out of Public Buildings
Nativity Scenes out of Public Square
Public funding for anti-American groups
etc....

The less Christianity the more insanity.

Christianity would fix so much of our country's ills right now but the Left has succeeded in abolishing it from public view.
Stepping off my soapbox, now.

I’m still investing for Hillsdale. My son is 12, and if he gets accepted I’ll pay.

I see my college, The University of Texas, didn’t make the list. Maybe next year.

College of the Ozarks-Hard Work U- is a great place! Visited last year. They have a really nice restaurant on campus, run by the kids who are working toward degrees in the hospitality and food service industry.

“Levin advertises for Hillsdale on his radio show.”

Hillsdale publishes a newsletter called “Imprimis.” It is free and is mailed at no cost to the recipient. Just contact Hillsdale and they will put you on their mailing list. It’s a very good publication.

Moscow on the Colorado.
I will admit my bias, I am an old AG.
Aggieland is a lot more conservative than Austin.
