Conservative schools
Other than Hillsdale, what other places qualify?

Tons. I'm not talking about schools that explicitly broadcast the fact that they're conservative, I just mean there's a significant portion of the faculty, staff, and student body who fall into that category.

Okay, what schools have a majority of conservative faculty or students?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

I have no idea, but not looking for a majority either, necessarily. Just enough to keep the school from being insane. There's still a decent number of those.

Sorry to be a pain, but I'm really curious where these are. Granted, I view trough a red prism, but I don't think that the number of colleges/universities that have a significant number of conservative faculty or students is really small. Greater than zero, but not by much, particularly when you get to larger schools.

Last night, Lucas attended a PLP event. CNU has a sort of minor called The Presidential Leadership Program. The president of the college brings in special speakers and advisors to work with throughout the year. They also have to perform 50 hours of community service every year. The guys are required to wear suit and tie and the women have to wear professional attire (hems below the knee and no bare shoulders). Lucas got his advisor last night. It’s Barbara Comstock, former Republican Senator. His girlfriend got a Democrat delegate from the State House…

Lot of the small liberal arts colleges. Schools like Mississippi College, Louisiana College, East Texas Baptist are some I'm familiar with, but those type schools are scattered throughout the U.S. Some have centers of excellence that will surprise you.
I'm an old LC alumni. When I was there many years ago, the med school acceptance rate was almost 92%. It's not as good now, but I understand it's still in the high 80's.
Larger schools? BYU, Liberty, Baylor, Auburn, TCU, Texas A&M.

Tons of small schools in the south. Basically what Jolly said.
