Similarly, the political scientists M.

Their research found that the tendency of college graduates to be more liberal reflects to a large extent the fact that more liberal students are more likely to go to college in the first place.
Conservative parents, be worried! If your kid wants to go to college, he may already be a liberal but trying to hide it from you.

Sure, because everyone knows indoctrination of youth never happens. What I found was most students have a more conservative view of the world but have to hide it. The liberal group think made it a crime to express those views. You risk your GP by letting on you think the professor is full of it. You write a paper repeating the views of the professor as if you believe it. The problem is that those too stupid to understand what is going on often turn into the mob.

There are three kind of liberals;
Stupid, ignorant or evil
The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil. Not that it makes much difference in the long run.

I had some pretty liberal professors but also conservative ones. Got my degree in mech engineering so at least I didn't have to do a lot of fluff writing.
Was liberal leaning before going to college but started becoming moderate during college years. Even started to slant slightly to the right during my first job doing oil & gas. But all this tea party movement crap rubs me the wrong way. The fact they gave such bailouts to banks and crooks like Goldman Sachs and then went around blaming Obama for everything that is wrong annoyed me. Now all the herp derp about debt that magically appears that didn't make republicans rage when Reagan did it but somehow becomes the end all argument while having record low tax rates just boggles my mind.

That's because, as a few of us keep pointing out here for years now: REPUBLICANS ARE NOT FISCAL CONSERVATIVES. They haven't been for over a generation, now.

I had conservative and liberal professors both but most of them were liberal and the ones who felt strongly about their beliefs and showed it were typically liberal.
I am sure strong minded students with conservative beliefs hold on to those beliefs but the students who are not politically minded, do not have strong beliefs and are looking to their professors for insight and guidance can not help but be swayed to their way of thinking if only indirectly.

Is allowing gays to get married a liberal thing? It seems like common sense to allow two men or two women to get married. I dont think thats something college teaches you, thats something life teaches you.
