How ironic it is that in a time when so many professors exalt the golden virtue of dissent, these two become nervous once their theories are doubted or criticized.

LOL! In other words, liberals hate any truth that disagrees with their world view of how things "should" be.

Some years ago, when my brother was in college, he and his buddies formed a "Blame" Club. Each of them picked one of society's "ills" and took complete blame for it. As white males, they were being blamed for everything anyway, so this was their way of both poking fun and cutting down on the guilt quotient. What was all my brother's fault? The AIDS epidemic. So now you know!

To be a Conservative on campus is to be the new rebel. The libs, by going beyond the rational and deserting the middle, have created the atmosphere for Conservatism to have a voice beyond its numbers.

Well, that's the whole trouble really- Democratic candidates ARE generic, to an appalling degree.
The real question is, how liberal will this new generation allow the government to be with spending, police powers, etc.. what would be great is if a generation of Conservatives came out of the colleges prepared to THINK and be politically involved not as cheerleaders but prepared to deal with concepts and ideas.
Hundreds of years ago we had people willing to do that- in a post-revolutionary concept that was not magically free of bad ideas, corruption etc. and we still got a governmental system out of it, a republican (small R) government in tripartite form intentionally set up as a structure of opposing tensions- which arguably has been the best system on the planet, in all of history- should we want to keep it.
It would be great if we got a generation of people able to think on these levels. On the other hand, suppose they want to trash all that and worship a King? It's not enough for someone to support you, it's important that they do so for the right reasons.

And a social psychology professor said she saw students roll their eyes at a theory she mentioned suggesting that war coverage on Iraq could lead to an increase of U.S. homicides. "I could just hear them thinking, 'Oh, there she goes again!'" she said.

Social psychology professor hears students thinking?---Send in the white jackets!

Before the 2004 elections, bitter left-wing activists will orchestrate anti-Bush demonstrations as an excuse to cut class and make noise. They will elevate their whining about Bush "stealing the election" to a fever pitch.

They will increase their efforts for classroom recruiting for Dims, will hand easy grades to perceived Lefty students, will punish anyone who speaks from a conservative viewpoint, and try to hound any conservative college publications.

A sign of how far the decline has gone is that during the Iraq war and at other times in recent years, these Lefty profs have had to lead the 'protests' themselves. During the Iraq war, many campus protests amounted to a handful of professors that in some cases almost outnumbered the student protesters. The profs were pretty shocked at the extent of the rejection of their message, much as libmedia has been shocked at the Rush/FNC gains against the Left's media giants. The tenured Left recognizes the threat. After all, they dominate the modern academia because they took it over in the Sixties and Seventies, establishing their Leftism as an orthodoxy in the Eighties and Nineties. And now, they see the pendulum swinging back. They are fighting a rear-guard action, hoping that they can hold out until there is a shift back to more Leftist ideology among students. They correctly perceive the threat to them and their ideology. If conservatives merely continute their influence in campus politics, it will initiate a 20-40 year period of Republican/conservative dominance in ideology.

We must educate others that not all Republicans are evil, rich white males.

Its funny that this is the stereotype for Republicans. The most evil rich white males I can think of, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, and Ted Turner, are all Liberals!
