I should introduce you to my son. He started college this year wanting to be a journalist. He too is a conservative and worked very actively in the Senate campaign of George Nethercutt here in Washington State. He could use some professional advice on how to counter his liberal profs and co-students without alienating them completely (he still has 3 1/2 years to go).

Best advice I ever got is this:
Never, ever argue with your professors. You're there to get a grade and a diploma. If you hear something you disagree with, argue it with yourself in privacy. If you can counter it effectively, congratulations. If you can't, figure out why and learn from it. These guys are professionals at propaganda and indoctrination, and it's folly to think you are going to bring them down. If you win, you lose. Better to learn their ways and apply them in the future, when you have more control over your circumstances.
Think of how the terrorists are fighting in Iraq now. They knew that if they put up organized military style resistance, they'd be mowed down. Instead, they kept low and kept quiet until there were enough American forces and cooperative citizens. Then they started harassing from within, at close range, when it became harder to swat them.
It's war!
