Conservative students are more educated and prepared

Interesting article. I assumed as much from just observing my own kids and their friends during and after college. Rat students are ignorant because they are uninquisitive when it comes to looking at different perspectives. They are also unprepared for the real world where there are differing opinions everywhere you look.
It basically explains how liberals get so racist and bigoted. The ones who go into the public sector from college never change. They are racist and bigoted to the bone. You can't survive in most of the private sector exhibiting ignorance and bigotry.
Fascinating article.
How Liberal College Campuses Benefit Conservative Students
Conservative students, rather than being coddled, face significant intellectual and social challenges in college. These challenges impart educational advantages by forcing conservatives to defend their points of view. Liberal students, surrounded by like-minded peers and mentors, have less opportunity to grow in this way.
At Princeton University, where I have taught political science for seven years, conservative students make up just 12 percent of undergraduates. Throughout college, they hear alternative perspectives and hone their own arguments, anticipating opposition. In research for a book in progress—Tested: Why Conservative Students Get the Most Out of Liberal Education—I conducted dozens of in-depth interviews with students at Princeton and other competitive schools. Of the 28 conservatives I’ve spoken with so far, more than 90 percent report attending events featuring speakers with whom they disagree, compared with less than half of the 15 liberals I’ve interviewed. Nearly all of the conservatives said that they’ve been challenged by professors or other students in classroom discussions, but just two of the liberals said the same. These reports echo national surveys, which find that conservative students are more open to speakers of any ideological bent than are liberal students, who tend to support only speakers they agree with.

You see it here. Low info leftists run away crying because there is no echo for them here. They get challenged and they show daily how narrow their information stream is
The narrative is all that matters
but probably less diverse and therefore more evil
Critical thinkers get more out of college than unquestioning sheep. Stop the Presses!
Of course, the unquestioning sheep will age into the unquestioning TugCons of tomorrow, as many of you former Carter voters know.
Critical thinkers didn't hive mind the leftard narrative on all the major issues in the last 4 years Mr. One of the Most Effective Vaccines Ever and that the chicom crud came from animal transfers to humans.
Daddy is much better at the nickname thing.
Sleepy Dazzler. Crooked Dazzler. I'd deflect to when your examples of critical thinking are not critical or thinking.
The unquestioning sheep are the left and they gladly burn and loot cities, attack police, cheat in our elections, threaten everyone with violence and cry to help prevent climate change!
. . . and drink the blood of babies sacrificed in a DC pizza parlor and . . .

How much do you consume?
The Russians are coming!!!!!!! The Russians are coming hh………..quick, run and hide!
Ha ha ha…..No one can ever forget the huuuuugggeeee swallow hh did on Russian hookers pissing on Trump and that completely made-up Russian collusion. Yet here the hypocritical arrogant ass is attempting to mock others.
Hh is the gift that keeps on giving ridiculous takes.
His ignorance and goose stepping is entertaining though, I will give him that.
when all your memories didn’t happen, does it mean you don’t exist?
You mean you really didn't go to law school?
You are the unquestioning sheep
Hope this helps
Dukakis in the house!
See?
Where?
The Atlantic is great. Glad you like it too.
H didn't read the article or the post. But he is open minded and up for serious debate
It never is about the source with you guys. That's been clear all along. It's about finding the stuff you want to hear, regardless of source, and attacking the source of the stuff you don't want to hear. Big Em sees right through it.
