the next day! Wow, how do I not remember that?!

It was/is an Art, Architecture, Engineering & Science college. I'd say it leans liberal. The draft conselor was a Quaker for goodness sakes! 😄 But there were some conservative students there, too. We also had dour 😄 looking socialist workers party students hawking their newspaper in the wide hallway adjacent to the Cafeteria.
