The 20 US colleges with the most liberal students
While not everyone at these liberal schools are Birkenstock-wearing, tree-hugging, clove smoking vegetarians, these campuses are home to some of the most left-of-the-spectrum students in the country.
These schools also often make The Princeton Review's lists that rank the most politically active students, the most LGBT-friendly students, and students who are the least interested in sports.
Every school on the list is a small liberal arts college with an average undergraduate enrollment of 1,613 students among the 20 colleges. Only five schools on the list are from the south and midwest combined, while the remaining 75 percent are located in the northeast, pacific northwest, and California - typically blue states.
