Transferring to a Community College to finish my Associates, since I couldn’t really handle all the annoying liberalism of my local 4-year (plus, I had a medical emergency every mid-semester, which wasn’t fun.) Once I finish my apprenticeship and my Associate’s, I was wondering what college is actually decent for socialism/communism?
Obviously, there’s a lot of factors like tuition, student demographic, faculty, ect. But, this is mostly hypothetical. I’ve heard Evergreen was pretty good, emphasis on the was.

If you’re stuck in burgerland. I’d just do a state school. 1+1=2 in flyover state college is still 1+1=2 in Harvard. But I’d pick the closest to the city you want to live in or close to. The job market is so oversaturated you’re better off using your professors for whatever nepotism you can get your hands on.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong but a lot of universities (especially high ranking ones) are treating themselves like a brand rather than a learning institution….less school and more country club.
A Chinese university if you consider studying abroad.
My first choice fr, but my Chinese is piss-poor right now.
Yeah learning Chinese would give you access to more courses and programs only taught in Chinese, and they tend to be higher quality than the English equivalents.
Probably none of them. They’re all pretty cringe liberal. I used to think there were some bastions of communist thought out there, but seeing them all cave immediately to Trump’s demands removed that notion permanently.
You thought there were communists in the administrative level of us universities? The actual lecturers and professors in university who are the people who might actually be able to transmit any kind of political thought have never had any sway when it comes to university politics, especially nowadays when any program that’s more than an expensive vocational school are systematically defunded and killed
No, not at the administrative level, at the professor level. I’ve never seen a school in the US that had communist administrators. But all of the schools bowing to king trump without any pushback from their faculty means the ones that are there are socialist in name only.
there are no pinko friendly universities in the US.
spoiler
it is fake tho right
It’s a real college.
that seal isnt the official one afaik
the university model is such economic bullshit that you’re not going to find an american university whose admin wouldn’t immediately bend knee to the state, lest they lose their burgerbucks.
I agree with DragonBallZinn, find one in/near where you want to work or, depending on what you plan on studying, look into professors you’d like to learn from.
In my own experiences, I’ve found that the distribution of people at any university is about the same, some just have way more people than others. That’s to say, at a smaller school you’ll find a leftist community pretty quickly but at a state college you’ll probably have to be proactive about it otherwise you’ll find yourself surrounded by libs and chuds.
I would look at the region rather than the specific university. There’s probably plenty of commies at schools in NYC, Boston, Chicago, Philly, SF, LA etc
The New School in New York City might be good.
Reed College
What you can do is look at what the professors and staff of whatever university you apply to are researching and what kind of courses they offer. There are leftist professors doing leftist study programs in universities where you actually read Marx and stuff, but for obvious reasons they don’t advertise that on their homepage.
