Sounds like an interesting book. I remember reading D'Souza's book "Illiberal Education" near the beginning of public awareness of the PC juggernaut on college campuses. The problem now is quite a bit worse that it was then.
I do not share Ms. Kersten's optimisic view of young people reforming the Universities virtually on their own. I think more drastic measures are necessary. Most likely, conservatives will have to put their money where their mouth is, and stop funding liberal schools altogether. That should free up plenty of capital to build or support universities truly dedicated to Classical Liberal education.
No surprise here, eh?
Here in Nevada, with a great big budget deficit suddenly showing up , with the resulting cry for increased taxes, the Legislature, not satisfied with having one of the most mediocre educational institutions in the country (UNLV) is funding another one a few miles south in Henderson--
You hit the good old nail. It is time to question state funding of these schools. First we must address tenure. These are government employees. I can see tenure in fields that can lead to potential political dispute, however there is no reason for tenure in the Math, Computer Science, Physics, etc... departments. Universities should roughly reflect the attitudes, values, morals of the communities that support them via taxes. If leftist/Marxist professors must preach their BS, they can do it at private universities and colleges.
