How the Liberal University Hurts the Liberal Student

One of the more interesting tidbits from this installment: While only 12% of all university professors see themselves as Republicans 51% of those are pro-choice, 63% of them want more environmental regulation, and 39% of those want government to reduce the ‘income gap.’  So many of the ‘(r)epublicans’ in Academia, hold similar views to Democrats.
