    1. Is a very good school (preferabely in the northeast U.S.) with majors in Psycology and Buisness.
    2. Is very liberal and has a somewhat large number of people into psycedelics/mind exapansion/conciouness etc.
    3. Has a nice campus (not in the middle of a city, or if it is in a city at least having a large campus)
    4. Not to far away from a city

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Let's see... Tufts is very popular these days.

    Wesleyan is further from a city, but definitely WAY liberal. Not sure they have business though. good psych at least.

    There are tons of places. I should be able to think of more. my brain is just frozen.

    I would LOVE to go to either Wesleyan or Tufts.

    Unfourtunately I don't have the grades to get in, My gpa is a 4.4 or 4.5 and i got an 1850 on the SAT. It doesn't quite cut it.

    Check on Hampshire College in Amherst MA. Big ol' college town, not too far from Boston, EXTREMELY liberal/ alternative education school.

    Brandeis! It's about the same level as Tufts (which you do have a chance of getting into, don't let the stats scare you off!) but it's about 10 miles out of Boston and weekend transportation into Boston as well as a commuter rail at the edge of campus.

    The one downside is that a lot of the population are rabidly Zionist, but about all other things the campus is extremely liberal. We regularly get condoms on holidays from the student sexuality services (and in neat colors!), we're having a "liquid latex" show tomorrow, which is basically a body painting dance, and the first day I toured here 2 years ago there was a guy with dreds and a yarmulke walking around barefoot with bongos. Home :)

    I would advise you against a business major though- if you want to get into business, major in economics. Business majors are generally the slack off majors. So is psychology at most schools except Brandeis.
