Ok, I'll put down the snark and, since you seem to be genuinely misinformed, make a serious suggestion that you read Professors and Their Politics by Neill Gross. It pretty conclusively shows that the academy overall leans strongly liberal.

You only use stats that you throw your own bias into and only show anecdotal evidence. There is no argument to be made against something that proves nothing other than saying it isn't a real argument.

>That is called a straw man. I never said that. People are ALWAYS trying to influence people towards their political views if they are politically active/savvy they only believe it's noble. People are biased and in the social scientists/gen ed politics always comes up.

That isn't a strawman. You said that.

Can you provide any evidence that liberal professors are some huge issue on campuses. Universities aren't going to go out of their way to find conservative professors when there aren't as many. I've never had a single class where my professor only showed one view point and I've never heard of anyone else sharing this opinion. Can this issue exist, yes, does it exist as widespread as you're claiming, no. All you're doing is spewing the same "all colleges are liberal" argument that fox news and every right winged news source does.

Educate yourself. Conservative students who become engaged become more conservative and liberal students become more liberal as well.
