Actually Troy University when I attended was a very conservative college.
I can remember a few who were former military who were hard core. I especially remember Col. Williams. He was big and mean looking and most of us were a bit afraid of him. He had a tendency to glare at you.
I once visited his office and was surprised that he was both friendly and cordial. I guess he saved the hard face for class.
I had another who was former Army intelligence and he too was hard core. Also a bit of survivalist. I did have one liberal prof. but even he loved guns and shooting.
This guy?
