Kansans would be better off not going to those hotbeds of leftist indoctrination anyway.

I'm sure that's how the Moms and Dads of these A students will console themselves.

Please, that's a terrible thing to say. In my entire scholastic career at several colleges renowned for being "leftist" I never once encountered any "leftist indoctrination" in any science or engineering class. I would never ever think of discouraging my children from getting an engineering degree at MIT, Stanford, Cal Tech, or even Berkeley. Obviously you need to be careful when thinking about liberal arts degrees in History or something, but refusing to attend MIT because the guy teaching you vector calculus is a Socialist or something is taking it way too far. I would have given my right arm to get into MIT, and I wouldn't have come out of there a raving communist. I would have graduated from arguably the best engineering school in the world and hopefully counted myself among the best engineers in the world. To be honest, I have generally found people in applied sciences to be pretty apolitical anyway.
