Actually, look outside the university and it's a pretty conservative community.

It's not a conservative community. You had said on here before that there were a lot of yuppies. That part is true. But it's a bizarre left wing yuppy and similar to Northern Cali/Marin County. These people are well-to-do upper-middle-classers that drive Audis and Landrovers and then smoke the pot and side with the extreme left on everything. CU is actually pretty conservative compared to Naropa...now that's a fricking nutjob school if there ever was one. I think it's Boulder, but they have this great Shelby Cobra museum.
And I wouldn't say Boulder is surrounded by reality. Outside of the satellite suburbs like gunbarrel, it's surrounded by some heavily conservative Christian towns on the other side of the spectrum. Colorado is actually a really fricking strange place the more I think about it. You guys don't like anything in moderation.
