It's probably fair to say that the majority of college professors are middle to the left. Not saying none are to the right but I would say most aren't.

Because I went there and took quite a few poly-sci classes and all had liberal professors that couldn't wait to bash the right??

 

So, based on a select few, you've determined the majority are liberal?

I just don't think that academia is the raving left as everyone makes them out to be. It's kind of like saying all welfare recepients are lazy, or all gun owners are evil.

The poly sci department is not very big. Having taken 5 classes there, with 5 different professors, I'm confident that my assertion that NKU's poly sci faculty is left-leaning....Not sure why that's so difficult for you to grasp.

Whatever, You're right...I'm wrong...worse...I'm a flaming idiot. Mea culpa. Hope you have a good day.

You said poly sci college professors leaning to the left is a myth. I simply stated based on my dealings with the NKU faculty, that at NKU, it isn't a myth. For whatever reason, you decided to take exception with that opinion.

 

Seemingly, if you've had no dealings in any way with the NKU poly-sci department, I'd say my assertion is much more likely to be true, based on first-hand knowledge, than your "assumption".

 

I honestly felt that we were allowed to voice our agreement or disagreement of opinions on this board. I'm not sure why you've decided to flip out, but that's your right.

No, this is the quote I responded to:

I'm surprised that Harvard would want a republican for that post. I don't know a lot about the Ivy leaue schools. I just thought they leaned a lot more to the liberal side than conservative side...

No, this is the quote I responded to:

 

And as I said in my original post, I know it's not an Ivy league school, but at NKU at least, it appeared that the "myth" is true. Nothing more, nothing less. I think you're trying to read way too much into my post that simply wasn't there.

 

It appears there may have been some confusion as to what we were each talking about. My apologies if this is the case.

I think so too. So, my apologies as well. But...although I was snippy, I didn't "flip out". You'll know when I flip out. I was just seriously tired of arguing what I felt was a weird argument...which goes back to the bolded. :thumb:
