| 11. Baylor isn't as fundie as it used to be, but Waco |

is very Southern Baptist.
SMU might be better. Rice would be wonderful if he could get in. He'd be in Houston, which has many Dems. Austin would be wonderful. TAMU in College Station is still very conservative, but it is gradually changing. They now have a Dem Club, and more national and international students and professors are there lending a more liberal attitude. But after the military academies, TAMU places more new grads in the military than any other university. They msut be getting better if they skipped Phil Gramm for chancellor's or president's job.
