Unfortunately Baylor University, a Baptist University, has compromised its Christian principles in the altar of political correctness.

Baylor is still #20 on this list of colleges with the most conservative students for now. I think Yaf.org actually keeps a list of best colleges for conservatives so some of the smaller enrollment options also get attention

I would also suggest any one of the state merchant marine academies: Maine Maritime, Texas Maritime, New York Maritime, Massachusetts Maritime, California Maritime, and the Great Lakes Maritime Academy. All but the Great Lakes offer a four year degree in marine transportation operations or marine engineering as well as other majors. They are no nonsense colleges and all involve working on commercial merchant ship as a cadet for at least 60 days and training on a training ship as well.
The starting salaries for deck officers and marine engineers is anywhere from $60,000 to $80,000 per year.
Usually one works 7 days a week for a month on month off rotation or two months on and two months off. Room and board is provided and is tax free.
Maine Maritime Academy was just named the #1 public college in the US for the second year running by MONEY magazine.

Sexual acts (of any kind) are still forbidden.

Trade schools are still a good option without the cost.

I lived in Hillsdale, Michigan for a time. Never realized that the college there was such a hotbed of Conservatism.

Isn’t Ave Maria a relatively new school started by Domino’s Pizza founder Tom Monaghan?

I think Baylor has capitulated to the left recently too

Being catholic doesn’t insure anything anymore

What about Lipscomb or Harding or Tennessee Tech

Most southern and truly western schools have student bodies similar to the parents

But the teachers

Regardless most kids today are socially far more liberal

It’s been that way in increments since WWII

In far too many colleges the fanatic left rules. Free speech is forbidden. Several even demanded that Chick-fil-A be removed from campus and it was.

Monaghan has not been in control of Domino’s Pizza for some time. Back in the early 90’s he had some sort of Catholic religious epiphany, stopped work on a massive new home he was building, sold the Detroit Tigers to Mike Ilitch, and went off to start this university. Had he been running the show I’m sure Domino’s would not have done that and would have been subjected to the Truett Cathy treatment.

1) Tom Monaghan sold Domino's Pizza in the late 1990s.

2) Please provide any evidence for Domino's Pizza celebrating the sodomite union ruling. I find nothing in a simple search engine request. I do, however, find several sodomite websites (salon dot c*m, for example) condemning them as "anti-gay".

See #16.

GeronL needs to back up or retract his assertion.

Webb Institute: http://www.webb.edu/

“Ever wondered what goes into designing an America’s Cup yacht, U.S. Navy destroyer, or a cruise liner? Webb Institute is a four-year, fully accredited engineering college that has specialized in naval architecture and marine engineering for the last 125 years. Founded in 1889 by prominent New York shipbuilder William H. Webb, the Institute has produced the nation’s leading ship designers for over a century. Every Webb student receives a full-tuition scholarship founded by Mr. Webb and continued by the generous contributions of alumni/ae, friends of Webb, parents, corporations, and foundations.”

Academic requirements for admission are challenging and the curriculum jumps right into the engineering, no fluff. You only pay for living expenses.

and as far as the ones that ARE a scam, start here.

Near as I can tell it’s an out-and-out immigration scam. Foreign students come here, enroll in some pointless Masters program, graduate with an F1 OPT temporary work visa, repeat as necessary.
