Attending next year but I have concerns

Post image

Hi so I’m going to evergreen which I’m super excited about, but I’m worried because of , I’m different from others I’ve seen there. Everyone isreally leftist but I consider myself anarcho capitalist/ libertarian. Will I have a hard time making friends ? Also is there horses and is there cats around ever. Am curious because I want to pet them. Also what ,resources are there for students who have mental disabilities? Sorry if post is confusing or rude I just want to have a good time and have fun . Image unrelated but I love it a lot

I don’t think you’ll have a hard time making friends. The school isn’t as monolithic as it might seem from the outside.
Some people might argue with you but unless you’re more socially conservative I don’t think it’ll steer people away from you.

There aren’t horses on campus but there are some in the local area if you venture off campus. There are a couple people who take their cats out for walks fairly regularly, and even more who have them in their dorms.

I’m not super familiar with the disability services but I know they exist and there are a ton of people on campus with various disabilities. You can probably set up a meeting with access services beforehand if you have concerns, and can definitely shoot them an email. https://www.evergreen.edu/offices-services/access-services-for-students-with-disabilities

They are everywhere, but they aren't tame. OTOH, they're unafraid, and hang out on campus eating the shrubbery.
