"Nearly all my professors are Democrats. Isn't that a problem?"

Dan Lawton, a journalism student at the University of Oregon, writes an interesting column in the CSM on the political bias in our major universities. This is the "elephant in the room" that is redirecting our society and nobody wants to talk about , particularly the leftist professors who are confronted by Mr. Lawton.

I wonder if this bias could be contributing to Oregons governmental/financial problems at the current time?

Our childrens teachers have a great attitude as illustrated by the following excerpt:


"What I didn't realize is that journalism that examined the dominance of liberal ideas on campus would be addressed with hostility.

A professor who confronted me declared that he was "personally offended" by my column. He railed that his political viewpoints never affected his teaching and suggested that if I wanted a faculty with Republicans I should have attended a university in the South. "If you like conservatism you can certainly attend the University of Texas and you can walk past the statue of Jefferson Davis everyday on your way to class," he wrote in an e-mail.

I was shocked by such a comment, which seemed an attempt to link Republicans with racist orthodoxy. When I wrote back expressing my offense, he neither apologized nor clarified his remarks."



We all need to pay attention!
