I was very fortunate concerning where I attended college. I got a minor in poli sci at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, TN. This was in the early to mid 70’s. Most of the poli sci profs were moderately liberal. But they could not pigeon holed. I remember that it was from a “liberal” professor, believe it or not, that I got my first appreciation for life and opposition to abortion. He contended that it was the only true liberal position to protect those who were least able to protect themselves. I do remember that they encouraged different views, and yes, I got A's, even though I was an outspoken conservative. Guess things have changed alot on the college campus now!

Your professor may have considered himself a classical liberal, which is nothing like the progressive-liberal hybrid masquerading as a person of knowledge. The second time I went to college, four years full time at the University of Dallas, I got a much better education, pretty much equal to what my daughter got at Hillsdale. It was so nice to be able to learn how to think and write without being forced to defend my beliefs when I wasn't ready.
