Here’s a big surprise.
A survey by a Harvard University newspaper of graduating students showed that only 6.4% were leaning conservative after going to the Ivy League School.
6.4%
The Crimson newspaper emailed the survey to 1,269 graduating seniors and go responses back from 40%. The results were 4% lean conservative and 2.4% are very conservative.
Not surprisingly, the survey asked what their politics were before they went to Harvard and 7.1% were conservative before attending Harvard.
Here are some other results:
- 40.7% identified as “progressives” after attending Harvard while 44.7% said they were progressive before. And 27% were “very progressive” after attending Harvard while 20.9% were very progressive before.
- Only 1.4% of the graduating students surveyed identify as apolitical.
- 93% of graduating students don’t like Donald Trump (another big surprise) while 51.8% have a favorable view of Biden. Thirty-one percent don’t like Biden.
- The survey showed 54.1% want to get rid of federal immigration enforcement and only 15.3% want Elon Musk to but Twitter.
- Also, 68.5% said they hold a favorable view of Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
What conclusion can be drawn?
Harvard and most major colleges are hotbeds of liberalism. Almost no one goes to these schools and increases in conservative thought.
Spending your hard-earned money on a terribly expensive education at Harvard University is a waste if you want your kids to have conservative values.
