3. You are a petulant little kid. If professors don't publish at a four year institution, they are
fired. They are
HIRED to be critical and have biased opinions.
And as for your nonsense about "murdering all the lefties" as compared to "capital punishment is immoral," the comparison is absurd, and you deserve to be hit with a stupid stick. Capital punishment is a contentious issue that deserves its place in any ethics, sociology, or even public policy class. A good professor will fully disclose their biases, as opposed to muting them. A good professor will have open and frank debate within the class, allowing all sides to be heard. But expecting a professor to be silent and not give their educated opinions on the subject they specialize in, all because you have some retarded anti-government, utopian perspective on hoe college campuses run, is ridiculous.

Think about how government could screw us over if objectivity is thrown out of the window. It would subsidize schools that support its actions and further involvement in the economy. Or, if conservatives gained control, might seek to change public opinion on abortion, church and state, or foreign affairs.
In any case, how can you possibly defend seizing anothers assets and using it to hire someone whom I completely disagree with?

Again, look to the evidence, and then look to those who testified. Were the professors calling for a Maoist revolution? Were they calling for government seizure and collectivization of property? No. Were they telling females to have abortions and foresake God? No. The fact is, we don't know WHAT crimes thse liberal demons commited. All we know is that a bunch of kids feel discriminated against. This is certainly worth investigating, and if ANY professors personal biases towards INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS led them to grade them differently, they must be canned. But blaming this on liberalism on campus would be like blaming my speeding ticket on conservatism in the police department (I DO have that Nader 2000 bumper sticker, after all).

Of course you wouldn't, because you're not a liberal, and you consider yourself an academic. But to my knowledge you haven't stepped foot in a college classroom, am I correct? If liberals aren't drawn to academia, why is everyone bitching about liberalism on campus....?

I think you'll find that most of the kids on campus are not so much drawn to academia as they are to beer, sex, and the chance to attain a higher pay load.

I'm talking about the faculty.
