I sometimes forget that the midwest includes a few cities that aren’t technically farm towns, but I always think of places like Ohio/Michigan as the north, not the midwest. Maybe not the highest per capita or best educated, but at least industrialized as opposed to agrarian.

But regardless of what is taught, the point is that in such places often the indoctrination is so strong in youth that, although the science is taught, it is mbumively rejected. I’ve got friends that collect and disseminate some of the most lovely essays they have graded as TAs, and it’s pretty amazing to see how people will take a subject like twin studies (in the context of nature v nurture) and turn their papers into a rant about how evolution is a lie.
