If you are gay, you will find the EC environment safe and even liberating -- you'll have the run of the place and receive special treatment. If you are far-left politically, the same applies and you'll fit right in. If you have a conservative or moral (especially Christian) value system, get ready for abuse, derision, and even physical assaults which will be winked at by the faculty. Also required of conservatives students are papers and writings that subordinate the student's true feelings & ideas -- only leftist writings are graded well, and only leftist sources are allowed. Simply citing the National Review in a bibliography can potentially cost a full grade point or more. Staunch leftist aversion to all opposing viewpoints is mean-spirited from students and faculty alike; perverse, one-sided "Political Correctness" reigns supreme -- conservatives and Christians are fair game, but one careless remark about women, gays, or minorities can get you expelled. EC is supposedly a dry campus, but alcohol and illegal drugs are everywhere. The bottom line? At EC you can end up with an education that is roughly equivalent to a decent state school, although an EC degree may, in limited circles, carry slightly more clout. The faculty are generally accessible, but usually exhibit a closed-rank, drone mentality. The administration is very aloof and elitest, with virtually no interest in students beyond PR and recruiting. I would not choose EC again, and I won't recommend EC to family or friends.
