Default Liberal, leftist college education
There have been many discussions about students being subjected to liberal, leftist professors espousing their political views rather than being objective on subjects taken during their college years. I think this quote by a college president proves the point!



Outside speakers were not the only liberal speakers featured at commencements this year. Several universities instead featured their presidents or a member of the Board of Trustees. Stephen Trachtenberg, President of George Washington University, overtly exemplified his liberal views by stating, 'If anybody has a mortarboard, you can move your tassels from right to left, which is what I hope happened to your politics in the last four years'." --Young America's Foundation

Default Re: Liberal, leftist college education
It is funny, but also sad. I've seen cases where children go off to college and have changed so radically that family conversations turn into arguments because of the polarization in politics. Others though had such a strong foundation in family beliefs and values that there was no change. Those that didn't change seemed to have had a harder time with their professors in school.

Colleges and universities have claimed since time immemorial that they are institutions of open thought, debate, learning, scholarship, free thinking....

Horse CRAP!!!!

Not really, se0sea. You see, this liberal do-gooder stuff has not only penetrated history, English, Science and other departments in the universities, but also the theology/philosophy departments. If you are teaching in a seminary, maybe you are hired even if you are a white man, straight, married even and have children. If you are in that category, plus being Christian and very highly recommended, well-liked and admired in your field, forget it. You cannot get a job in one of the universities, especially, it seems to me, to teach religion!

I know. This is the reason I have a "resident theologian."
