Who wants to pay for that or being left for years with a study loan debt to get brainwashed.

Now additional the kids safety is in danger as we all could see how safe Berkeley and NYU are.
Well then please stay away. I don't want my kids sharing their school with someone who comes in all ready to hate a different idea.

The left is really big on diversity right? They keep saying we need diversity because different experiences and outlooks challenge us and enrich us all.

So what is wrong with diversity of IDEAS? Why is that anathema?

Start a conservative college, make it successful and make the graduates employable. Pretty straightforward.

OTOH, I am glad to see you are also concerned with the crushing debt many students are left with in order to get an education. We certainly do not want to live in a society where only the wealthy can go to college. Good day.
Gawd! I cringed when I read that word in the title of a thread presuming to castigate University/College curricula. You cannot make this stuff up.

Here are a handful that rank highly (my father attended one of them):

Baylor University
University of Dayton
Wheaton College
Texas A & M
Brigham Young University
Grove City College
Hillsdale College
Thomas More College of Liberal Arts
All of the military academies

Among the ivy league schools: Dartmouth is generally thought of as the most conservative, although on purely social issues, like all of the other ivies, they swing liberal.

Colleges don't sell education. They sell credentials.
You can learn any where, any time, any way. . . but only if you jump through the hoops of the "accredited" institution will you receive the "approval certification" that you're pliant and obedient to authority.
