Many academics I see online are leftist whereas many laypeople I see online are right wing.

    There are many conservative universities and colleges in the US and all of the ones I know about are heavily tied to some religion.

    • Liberty University is right wing as fuck and was founded by Jerry Fallwell. It was originally called Lynchburg Baptist university.
    • Baylor is a right wing Baptist University
    • Brigham Young University is right wing and part of the Mormon Church
    • I suspect that other than the US Coast Guard Academy all Military academies and universities in the US are Right Wing as Fuck.
