Craig80st The idea for New College (modeled on New College at Oxford) and the funds to seed it were provided by the United Church of Christ in 1959. Although many of the students are liberal, not all of them are. It is not an ideological school; it leaves room for students to express themselves. whatever that may mean. I don't know the breakdown of which religions students follow or don't.That is their personal business.One of my cohort is an antiabortion Catholic priest. From such a dangerous liberal place! Another one sheltered the Chibok girls in Nigeria as they were freed, another founded a zoo in Costa Rica. I know several serving in the Foreign service and State depts..and in education writ large, including college presidents.  It is already a very diverse place in terms of personal ideology. Christian students attend. Some of them complain - as is their right.We are also the place that, because it is so open to diverse thought, was able to help Derek Black, through contact with students from backgrounds he had been taught to hate and were inferior, leave Stormfront and White Nationalism at great personal sacrifice. Google him if you don't already know who he is.It is a school about opening your mind to knowledge, and seeing where that track takes you. That's why students who really want to develop intellectually go thereI don't know if this answered your question but I hope it helps
