I came across this article on my Facebook newsfeed and I thought some people here might be interested: http://fusion.net/story/303507/most-hate-filled-colleges-tweets-collegestats/
According to article they got their data by looking "at tweets originating from within one mile of a college campus center with 1,000 to 4,999 full-time students, and within three miles of a college campus center with over 5,000 full-time students. (Of course, this means that some tweets may be originating from residents living near the school). They then compared the overall set of words in the tweets with the amount of hate-words they contained to come up with what you might call a hate-ratio."
I was surprised by the inclusion of Fordham (racist), Yale (sexist), and The New School (homophobic).
