I don't know that man personally, but as a W&L alum, I can tell you that W&L is just about as conservative as it comes.
Just for illustration, in the student hierarchy, the President of the College Republicans is listed above the President of the Student Body.
Well, I'll put a plug in for W&L. It's a great place, and a fine institution of learning.
Kinda hard to believe that Soros would have anything to do with a conservative university! Curiouser and curiouser...
