Zero Republican Professors in More Than Half of Surveyed University Departments

[Yakuda]

I'm not buying this weak attempt at OPIE trying to play the victim here.

Opie is trying to accuse Higher Education of hiring potted plants!

OPie, instead of crying,. "Everybody is just a pickin' on us" why don't you go and seek a higher education for yourself, and then report back to us!

Thanks!

Next!

You have to be a brain dead idiot to not know that the vast majority of college campuses in this country are leftist sewers. They dont teach or encourage thinking they preach obedience. There is no free exchange of ideas there is the leftist way or the highway. And the thing is I don't mind that because what we know.is conservatives controlled college campuses you low life weasels would lose your shit. You people are petulant children who scream when you dont get your way. You never make an argument. That's the saddest part of all.

If you would stop responding to my responses like lightning, you would have seen the argument I did present!

Go back and read what I had to say about the example I provided!

And if you think that Texas U, or SMU, TCU, Baylor, NTSU, Texas Tech, Texas A & M, are Liberal Propagation factories, or saying they only hire leftist potted plants, people are going to say to you, "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MIND?"

Jesus Christ! You righty rights are going full paranoid schizophrenic!

Always playing the victim- right out of Donald Trump's Coloring PLAYBOOK!

You early didn't read what I wrote. I NEVER said all colleges you leftist schill I said the vast majority. Maybe if you weren't such a pompous see you could take time to read. Try Again.

This has been going on for decades and rthe reults are always the same. You can deny it because it looks your party look bad but then you are ignoring the truth and facts

Agreed. I clearly said Democrats far outnumber Republicans among college professors, especially in the social sciences and humanities. I don't have a party, but if you are erroneously assuming I am a Democrat you are wrong. However, I don't see how it makes Democrats look bad. If I were partisan I would claim it proves smarter more educated people are Democrats. But, that would be as oversimplified a conclusion as those who claim colleges don't hire conservatives.

The truth and facts are clearly that a faculty member's party affiliation is an unknown factor in the hiring process. At highly ranked universities the applicants research and publications determine his qualifications. Graduate departments are ranked by their publications in the top ranked journals. Neither party affiliation or (unfortunately) teaching ability are factors.

This topic is covered well in a book called "Passing on the Right." It is research conducted in political science departments dealing with the issue of conservatives in academia. One chapter compares conservatives to gay faculty members. They don't publicize they are gay or conservative early in their career, but after a few years they don't mind telling faculty colleagues they trust who don[t really care. A professor with highly respected publications is just as respected regardless of political ideology.

Of course, nobody respects those crazy conspiracy theory people who were birthers, election deniers, January 6 defenders, 9/11 truthers, but not many college professors are going to fall for lies that have no evidence to support them.

Political ideology is unknown in hiring????? Really???? They check out social media platforms for candidates if regular jobs you di t think they do that for professors? You think the lesbian studies dept doesnt know what a potential prof for that dept thinks about lezzies? Really?

Do you vote Democratic? Do you know how to think and always obey? If not, then colleges did not indoctrinate you disproving your point.

Most faculty members do not write about their own political views on social media. If they do so, it is more likely to be on platforms such as JPP which are anonymous. But, most see such discussions as a waste of time and are more likely to be on message boards with somebody who shares their research interest.

Arguing partisan politics filled with personal insults is more an occupation of old retired guys.

Of all the faculty selection committees I served on in 40 years the party affiliation or views of an applicant were never discussed and it might be illegal. If another committee member told me they had gone to the applicant's social media postings and found out that he was a conservative, I would tell that was not one of the factors to be considered. A prominent conservative known for their good research would be welcome (anything to bring attention to the college). Most research is not about partisan issues.

Most write academic papers and most lesbian dance theory profs don't write conservatively.

I used to but then the real world got a hold of me. College is a waste of time and money for most people. I remember a time before the govt got involved in student loans when going to college was affordable and it was barely worthwhie then let alone now with the asinine majors they have. They don't teach thinking they teach memorization. How do I know? Here's the mantra....."Will that being the test?"

Colleges don’t hire people to teach lies

Sure they do. Here's an example:

UNC hires ‘1619 Project’ author to teach journalism
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/apr/29/unc-hires-1619-project-author-teach-journalism/

The 1619 Project has been shown conclusively to be a lie. The New York Times had to print a retraction to that effect after it came out because numerous historians panned it as a LIE. Yet, UNC hired its author, a now proven LIAR, as a professor to teach classes there.

It’s documented facts asshole


The 1619 Project is a long-form journalism endeavor developed by Nikole Hannah-Jones, writers from The New York Times, and The New York Times Magazine which "aims to reframe the country's history by placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of Black Americans at the very center of the United States' national narrative."[1] The first publication stemming from the project was in The New York Times Magazine of August 2019 to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the arrival of the first enslaved Africans in the English colony of Virginia.[2] These were also the first Africans in mainland British America, though Africans had been in other parts of North America since the 1500s. The project also developed an educational curriculum, supported by the Pulitzer Center, later accompanied by a broadsheet article, live events, and a podcast.[3] On May 4, 2020, the Pulitzer Prize board announced that they were awarding the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Commentary to project creator Nikole Hannah-Jones for her introductory essay.[4][5]

See why college doesn’t hire as many cons?


They don’t know facts

 

[Dutch Uncle]

Youn mean how many would go there to be abused if they actually told their views. Conservative kids often tyell how if they tell their views they are condemned by the liberal professors

Oh, now you're calling all the RW teachers pussies. What kind of fucking nazified fuckwit are you, asshole???

Nice joke but the reality is the same answer as "Why don't more women sign up to become snipers and fighter pilots to kill people?""

Preferential differences between male and female. This doesn't mean that men can't be good Kindergarten teachers and women good fighter pilots. It just means that people tend to prefer professions based upon their gender and/or culture.

In short, the reason why more RWers aren't teaching economics or chemistry is because they are too busy cashing in by being economists and chemists. Teaching pays less than doing.

It's all about the money.

For some



People with morals make other decisions based on more than cash



They are more intelligent

Why do you White Supremacist cocksuckers want to force Right leaning Americans to work at colleges?

Is there a reason why the eagle in your avatar looks left, Pfffft? Are you a closet lefty?
