You’re a lying Nazi fuckwad who seeks to enslave Americans starting with conservatives. Fuck you dead, douchebag.

I hope you have to suck a lot of cock in prison before someone sticks a shiv in you, Nazi fuckwit.

You lied about FEMA not giving Florida $3B, you lied about me and now you’re lying about not wanting to enslave Conservatives by forcing them to be teachers. Fuck you, asshole.

I did not say that. I said IF I were partisan that would be my snarky response to the comment that it makes Democrats look bad because they far outnumber Republicans among college professors. It is a simplistic and false assumption that either side is smarter (although everybody thinks their side is smarter, more informed, more moral..).

I'm not sure what conservative students being afraid to speak up because it might affect their grade has to do with the other comments, but that is a student perception. It is not true and professors often do not know the names of all the students speaking up in class and many exams are multitple-choice graded by a machine. They are not going to change the student's grade because they disagree with their comments. That is student paranoia. We believed several things about our professors and classes that are totally false.

"More than half of college students regularly hold back on expressing their views on campus for fear of the potential consequences.
But, contrary to the stereotype of universities as hotbeds of militant liberalism, it is not just conservatives who are scared to speak out: students across the political spectrum worry about what will happen if they share their views.


As well as losing the respect of professors and classmates and jeopardizing their grades, students also fear being confronted if their political and social views become widely-known.
While 55% of conservative-leaning students say they ‘always’ or ‘often’ refrain from speaking out on political or social issues in the classroom, this is only slightly more than the 49% of liberal-leaning students who did likewise.

Perhaps most surprisingly, even students who classed themselves as moderate were afraid to express an opinion, with 52% saying they stopped themselves from speaking out.
Rather than suggesting a liberal bias on campus, the findings indicate that many students are uncomfortable with the idea of disagreeing, according to James L. Patterson, associate professor of politics at Ava Maria University in Florida, who has also taught in liberal-leaning institutions.

I did everything possible to generate discussion in my class including using clickers that allowed students to anonymously choose sides and I made sure almost every major opinion about a subject was expressed.

I did read it and read the original study from the College Fix.

Not one attempt to show those professors "indoctrinate" their students--just the simplistic assumption that is what happening.

You would first have to study the political beliefs of college students before they enter college and then after they graduate. Then, you would have to study how those college graduates vote.

I will make another post below showing election results by education.

I did. What is your solution, Pffft? Force RW college graduates to teach? Affirmative Action for RW Euro-American males forcing them to work for shitty teacher pay?

Are College Students Indoctrinated to be Liberal?

Let's look at the way college graduates vote in presidential elections to see how liberal they are.

Presidential Vote by College Graduates:
2004: 49% R v. 49% D
2008: 51% R v. 49% D
2012: 51% R v. 47% D
2016: 43% R v. 52% D
2020: 43% R v. 55% D

College graduates voted more Republican than Democratic in 3/5 of the most recent presidential elections. That pattern goes back to 1952 (or earlier). If schools were indoctrinating college students to be Democrats, we should see that in the election results. That pattern changed in 2016 when most college educated voted Democratic.

Obviously, any indoctrination did not suddenly change, so it must be some other factor. That factor is Donald Trump who lost the support of many traditional Republicans. He picked up tremendous support among white non-college graduates.

Since these non-college Trump supporters went to the same schools as the college graduates and were taught by the indoctrinated college students; yet, they chose to vote very differently than the college graduates. So, any indoctrination obviously does not show itself in voting behavior. If anything, it tends to show more indoctrination in a Republican direction.

From the OP link

"These results should be another wake-up call that higher education is severely biased and broken," said Jennifer Kabbany, editor-in-chief of The College Fix.

"The foxes are guarding the hen house," she said. "If parents, politicians and watchdogs wonder why students go into college as innocent and eager 18-year-olds and come out four years later as mouth-breathing progressive-socialist Democrats, look no further than the people teaching them what to think day in and day out at college."The fact that six of the seven schools analyzed were in primarily Republican states, the results across the board showed the same patterns.

"What that tells us is regardless of who voters put in office, lawmakers are not taking seriously enough the insidious problem of liberal bias in colleges and universities," Kabbany stated.

Another survey from earlier in the year, focusing on University of North Carolina campuses, revealed that conservative students are finding themselves having to self-censor their opinions out of fear that they would be penalized by their liberal-minded professors.Higher education is one of the most important battlegrounds for the heart, soul and mind of this nation," Kabbany added. "Legislatures have the power to ensure employment laws are followed, and that includes protecting candidates from being discriminated against because of their beliefs."

The fear of breaking rank with the liberal rhetoric is exacerbated by the continued stifling of opposing viewpoints on campuses.
Last month, a group of far-left masked activists descended upon an event at the University of New Mexico featuring Human Events Senior Contributor Charlie Kirk, screaming and chanting expletives while police held them back.

Earlier in the year at the same Albuquerque campus, a Tomi Lahren speaking event at the same university was violently shut down.

https://www.intelligent.com/college-students-fear-expressing-ideas-in-classroom/

52% of all college students say they “always” or “often” refrain from expressing views on political and social issues in classrooms out of concern for potential consequences
Conservative students are slightly more likely than moderate or liberal students to say they refrain “always” or “often”
Losing the respect of their classmates and professors, being ridiculed or confronted, and jeopardizing their grades are the consequences students fear most
Conservative students are slightly more likely than moderate or liberal students to be willing to hear a lecture from a guest speaker, or take a class with a professor who has differing viewpoints
And what exactly are those potential consequences that students fear? According to our survey, they vary slightly depending on students’ political leanings.

For liberal students, the top three concerns are losing their classmates’ respect (37%), being ridiculed or confronted (37%), and putting their physical safety at risk (35%).

Conservative students, meanwhile, are less concerned with their physical well-being, and more about standing with peers and professors. The top three fears among this group are losing their professors’ respect (40%), losing their classmates’ respect (40%), and jeopardizing their grade (39%).

As with their politics, moderate students’ concerns are a blend of those of their more liberal and more conservative peers. The top 3 concerns among this group are losing their classmates’ respect (37%), being ridiculed or confronted (37%), and jeopardizing their grade (35%).

What is this "Democrat Party" of which you speak?

There's a Democratic Party with which I've been registered since 1967, but I've only heard complete, hopeless idiots refer to this unknown "Democrat Party."

The college population has changed. A greater percentage of college students now study non-STEM liberal arts and are female and minorities.

So. You've been brainwashed by the Communist party since 1967? Good to know. Now go get shot. Oh and the DemoCRAT party which you belong to are still the enemies of America.

Yeah, what good does that do anybody?

I remember I knew this female architect, she was very good at what she did. Only other I've ever met as good as her was this old Italian man.

They both designed skyscrapers. Big buildings.
