[Cicero]

No doubt there are still plenty of college students who approve of abortion. But their numbers are definitely shrinking. The prolife movement is doing very well among the younger generation. Survivors, for instance, has been very effective in speaking to them. NARAL and NOW are losing support, and the Supreme Court is shellshocked that this issue simply won't go away, as they assumed it would when they passed Roe v. Wade and then Casey.

My impression as a long-time college professor is also that although the faculty is stuffed full of aging radical leftists, the student body is more or less normal. Some of them have never really given as much thought as they might to these issues, but they are definitely--with regretable exceptions--much less leftist than the professoriate.

Well picked up. I have worked in Security for a University for almost 20 years and have seen the student body turn from druken beer swilling Liberal louts (and that was just the women) into fairly serious, studious people. Even those studying enviromental subjects tend to be more presentable and less feral. The only groups that continue to worry me are Teaching, Social Work and the Arts and these are the very people who have the greatest influence on Democrat types.

God Bless,
