Only if you feel like fighting for respect 24/7. American is one of the true liberal bastions in academia.
Go ahead, fight the good fight. Maybe you can keep a kid or two from trodding down that wayward leftist path.

Good, bad, it's all in the eyes of the person taking such classes. I had a professor in college for my English requirement who was a hard core liberal and he gave no room of interpretation. He actually failed me on a paper about hoe we should keep up with the arms race. I had one spelling mistake but he wrote a paragraph on how I was wrong in my thoughts. I started to take it before the board but I just dropped his class. He was a dirt bag who protested back in the 60s. He was always playing Neil Young while we wrote our papers and I didn't care for a lot of Neil Young's music.

I think if you are a strong-minded person, you can study anywhere.
My liberal under-graduate education provided constant challenge to my beliefs and strengthened my convictions. I developed stronger arguments.
If a person cannot stand on their own two feet intellectually, they should probably not be pursuing a poli sci education.

You'll find that any university is compromised of mostly, but not all liberal minded folk. However, the debate and flow of knowledge will be good for you. It's student population is mostly well off and caucasian. I'm sure you'll find people who think the way you do.

If you want to study political science and develop your ability to make arguments contrary to liberal thought, then you should study at a LIBERAL college.
Having people spoon-feed you ideas, facts and figures that you already agree with, isn't education, it's "kool-aid."
If you have the guts to challenge your ideas, then your ideas and your education become that much more valid.

Philosophy as whilst used properly can exchange peoples hearts and minds in a effective way that advantages politics and our high quality of existence. it kind of feels the coverage of politics is inspired by using greed anymore. no longer something valuable to mankind as all of us comprehend it. Which in essence makes us loopy and sends us to Psychiatrist and that i already have adequate issues then to hearken to a diverse for an hour and then turn him returned into the international with some prescription. If I even have time to hearken to others issues, then i take such undertaking to heart. something they are taught to no longer do at school. i ought to in no way be so callous to a diverse human beings suffering. i might somewhat be a bartender at that element. in no way became a brilliant pupil of physics once I took numerous training in technology once I went to varsity. It became all i ought to do To pass the direction. yet, actual technology is extremely exciting
