You see this? This is the University I'll be attending.
I'm 18. Just out of Highschool. Decided on getting a masters in Environmental Engineering. Berkeley is the highest ranked school in the country that offers Environmental Engineering degrees. You have no idea how much I'm dreading this. I'm mostly Conservative except when it comes to environmental protection. But this is Berkeley. There's a high chance I'll get lynched by angry liberals for not respecting their safe space.

I will be kicked off of campus if I use the wrong pronoun.
>Examine how members get recognition: look for paternalism and tokenism
>When an organization is started, it shouldn’t be made up of white people
>Ask people of color/support people of color in their decision to be on the board or in leadership roles
Great to know I'll be yelled at for being a white cis heterosexual male.
I grew up in a white neighbourhood in Indiana and have had mostly white friends growing up
What are some survival tips for living around liberals for two years?
Hang out with the chinks. They tend to be more conservative and there will be a shitload at Berkeley. It's how I got through the Pre-med program.
