You know, it's an amazing thing.
When I go to work, I go there to do my job, not proselytize my political beliefs.
When I go to a restaurant, I don't want to hear how bad a day the waitress is having.
And when I go to school, I'm there to hear the instructor speak on Math or Economics, not his personal beliefs.
I couldn't care less about his personal beliefs!
Why is this so hard? Because the academic world isn't secular at all - it's just that the religion they push is Statism (through a Socialist eye). For all they piss & moan about imaginary "separation" clauses, and how offensive it would be to expose someone to the horror of an alternate point of view, they have a wide-open (and almost exclusive) conduit to what Rush refers to as "Skulls full of mush".
I would like to see these people fear for their lives....

Right on. I don't think profs should be made to fear for their lives, but if they're damaging students monetarily or blackballing them because of Leftist ideology, then turn the fury of the beast back upon itself and use the courts. It's only tearing a page from the book the Left has written. Much benefit might be derived from miring 'higher education' into endless litigation and the occasional damage award; less attention/resources can be devoted to convincing the students that the perfidy of the United States desperately requires its destruction.

Good post!
Too many of the rad/libs of the 60's are now tenured profs. Even in classes where analysis of situations are supposed to help students form their opinions, the profs are much too taken with their OWN opinions and like to try to flavor the "mush" with their own personal bias.
The vain hope of a previous poster that it should just all go away will not happen without some serious shoving to adjust the situation.
This order to read the Quran/Koran before coming to class is suggestive of trying to "understand" why the Muslims hate us, the way they think, etc. I am projecting here, but I have a senior in journalism at a GA Univ and the brainwashing is just unbelievable.
I give him books to read and try to counteract the baloney all I can.
Was in Las Vegas during the election and talked to several college students working at the resort. One admitted the LV Univ. campus was overrun with lib profs who didn't want to hear a conservaive thought and were openly canvassing for Kerry. A couple just spouted the lib anti-war theme--never any reason to go to war and they would not fight because there is NO justificatiion for war.
