It isn't fair, you see.

Only liberal, female professors know what's correct and incorrect in this mundane world of ours. If you don't believe that, just ask them. For a nickel, they will argue you into a corner(or try to), and take great delight in the exercise.

The good news: Most of the kids they're preaching to in their classes won't end up liberals.

I didn't go there, but a school nearby

Grove City?

“Students have complained regularly about substandard teaching from faculty who appear to have gained positions via political connections based on irrelevant matters like lifestyle.

Hmmmmm... I wonder what THAT means?

i have a HS junior and she is solid as a rock. she attends an all girls Catholic HS, which is not remotely conservative. She took on another student (chris Matthew's daughter, truth be told)in a debate in religion class last year at election time about how you can't be Catholic and in favor of abortion. A few weeks back, she did a religion project on Project Rachel, which is a ministry to women who have had abortions and who are heartbroken about them. the teacher is a phD in religion, the woman LOVED my daughter's project and said she had never heard of such a program. Ok, we were happy she got an A but ASTOUNDED that a woman with a doctorate in religion, teaching at a Catholic school, had never heard of Project Rachel.

bottom line, your kid will be fine if you have schooled them properly and they can influence others. We want a semi-conservative school for her for college, not because she can't hold her own among the left wing, just because it would be nice to have a few friends with the same mindset. good luck to your daughter, Merry, i bet she does great at the Rock ; )

I assume it means they're partial to other lesbians.

Female faculty members’ preference for hiring more female faculty members, simply because they are female, is also a concern of Levy’s.

Hmmm, let's change the name of the college, Slippery Rock, to Slippery C*ck and watch those women whine.

My daughters are much like yours: islands of thought in a mindless liberal sea at their high school. My eldest is headed off to college this fall. She chose Santa Clara University, and I am cautiously optimistic. It seems to have a pretty solid core requirement which includes courses in religion. My daughter had to demonstrate her readiness for a calculus course by taking a pre-entrance exam. It looks like they are actually serious about education there. A number of their professors are Jesuits; and although we are not Catholic, I have long respected the Jesuit commitment to education. We shall see. I intend to exert influence over her course selection for as long as possible.

My Mom and I both went there.

That reminds me.

When my younger sister was in elementary school (during the 2000 campaign she was 10 years old) she made a patriotic doodle that she put under the cover of her notebook that said "Bush is cool".

My mom also told me that her class had a mock election and George Bush won.
