"The only solution to this is to pull the funding of these ultra-liberal, left-wing universities and starve them out of existence. The people do not need to continue funding universities that are simply tools of propaganda for the left. Take away their money and force the tenured left-wing professors to go out and get a real job like the rest of us."

Well, this might be an all fine and well solution, but that would also mean that THEY would see fit to defund the conservative Christian schools and thus THEY would go out of business too! Its sort of a damned if you do and a damned if you dont scenario. I can just hear the libs crying "but..but..you cant dismiss a student simply bc he is an openly gay student!" blah blah blah..no more Pell Grants or Stafford loans for Christians. I hope Im wrong in assuming this will one day occur.

I don't see the Christian universities going away as in your scenario. If forced to compete in the free marketplace of ideas, the lefties always lose because theirs is a failed ideology. Left-wing universities would collapse overnight but for the foolishness of good people who continue to misdirect their own and public money to those snake pits. Private universities with sound moral foundation will always thrive because their appeal is fundamentally sound. Parents would always be happy to financially support their children's attendance at such schools.
