They ain't the only ones falling prey to that. :-(

Spending too much time at a university is harmful to your mental health.

BTW, I am a Taiwanese immigrant. I have observed my cousins, who attended the elite USA colleges (Stanford, Bryn Mawr, Smith, Cornel), become quite liberal when they graduated from those schools. In fact, I am the only conservative Republican in my family!

"Spending too much time at a university is harmful to your mental health."

The leftist ones at least. I pity that poor FReeper whose name escapes me who lives right by Evergreen U in WA and has been poisoned (at least in regards to his level of cynicism) by the atmosphere there. Scott on the Left Coast ?

Jeez. I wouldn't send my kids to those bastions of anti-American hate at gunpoint and risk having them to turn into just another Ivy League Sockcucker. My commie half-sis is expecting our father to pony up to send her kids to the Marxist University of CA-Davis where she got her brainwashing. Needless to say both I & my mother put our respective feet down on that. Gotta work on bringing your cousins back to reality. How did your aunts and uncles react to the "change" of their young 'uns ?
