Funny...I knew an attorney who graduated from Samford some years ago...I got the feeling it was more of a party school, at least at the time he went. Or maybe it was just that HE liked to party and didn't want to hit the books. In any event, I don't think he learned a whole lot there, let alone have any particular political affiliation.
Besides, just because the student body is conservative, doesn't mean that the professors aren't all socialist terrorist-sympathizers... But then again, maybe it's one of the truly rare universities which actually are willing to hire a patriot or a conservative. (Lieberman, Giulaini, Koch, etc., do demonstrate that one can be liberal and patriotic.)
