College Drops Charges Against Conservative Student Who Exposed Prof’s Liberal Bias Siena College has dropped charges against a student who posted hundreds of flyers to raise awareness of the hostility conservatives face from professors. Zachary Butler, a junior studying political science, told Campus Reform last week that he posted roughly 600 flyers depicting an email exchange in which a Siena College professor called conservative students “miserable” to work with. As Campus Reform reported, Professor Jenn McErlean sent an email on March 20 announcing that she quit her school’s committee on civil discourse because the thought of working with conservative students was “making me miserable.” LINK |

Oh lookie, another one.... Brookdale professor to conservative student: "F--- your life" Brookdale Community College is investigating a sociology professor after one of his students said the teacher was targeting him for being conservative. The situation came to a head last week during a discussion about sexual harassment, Brookdale student Christopher Lyle said. During the exchange, professor Howard Finkelstein slammed his hand on a desk and told Lyle, “f--- your life,” which was caught on video by another student and can be seen at the top of this page.

So college professors are human and have biases? Funny how you show little concern when it's a professor with a right wing bias. ![]() You cannot escape bias, it's ingrained in every person. So instead of whining about it, people need to work beyond it - and if it does wind up being a cause for concern (ie, provable that said bias caused a bad grade, etc.), then address it, but you cannot whine and moan when someone has a different opinion. |

When you start posting college professors exhibiting blatant right wing bias I will feign concern in your honor.... |

Do you have an example of a "right wing" professor targeting or treating students unfairly due to their political beliefs? I'll wait... |

Where does it say I have to educate you Clone? I am neither your brothers keeper, your parent, nor your professor. You want to live in your silly ideological world where "the left" is only capable of bias and stupidity? Go for it; but expect to be called on it because at the end of the day both the right and left are human, and capable of the exact same stupid stuff. You're smart enough to know this. Cheers. |

Off the top of my head I cannot recall any specific professors in the news so I'd have to see if I can dig up the links I once had (or re-find them, as i recall there was at least one midwest professor I recall reading about at a small school who got the boot because she wasn't in line with the schools conservative/traditionalist bias). I can, however, point to BYU, Liberty, and Bob Jones being three colleges who are very conservative and display bias against liberal/left wing (basically anything non-traditional/conservative) point of views, actions, etc. That said, my ultimate point is that if someone cannot deal with the real world and the fact that *everyone* has bias,be it left or right slanting, then maybe they ought to go back home to their parents? If you think you're not getting the whole truth, then buck up and educate yourself on the subject and learn all you can about it (ie, become well rounded). |

Oh I'm sure you did, just like you "know" a lot of other things....that are a load of crock. See, I understand that both you and Clone won't accept anything I or anyone with left leaning views says, because you have your biases and you're perfectly happy with them. Others even have offered examples on other topics, and both of you (especially Clone) have a handy 'yabbut' card in hand ready to be played. It's all good. I never expect much serious discussion here, and so be it.

Lucash, nobody is arguing that professors should be free of bias. The problem is when the political bias of a Professor or University results in the unfair treatment of their students....and it's happening daily on a grand scale to conservatives all across the country. |

I'd actually call that simply a professor being a jerk, regardless of bias or ideology, though in this case it does appear his bias came into play. I've no problem with acknowledging and dealing with bias where it occurs; but the problem is that the movement on the right isn't at all about bias and education, it's a bunch of whine connoisseurs banding together. |

Let me ask you this - would you hold the same views if bias affected other areas of a persons life? Say, job, promotions, etc.? That's what annoys me - this idea that there's some sort of conspiracy movement against your bunch, that you're all a bunch of victims. No, you're simply dealing with life. So address the problem on a specific case by case basis (ie, this professor was a jerk, deal with him not all professors) and lets continue a dialogue. (Have to head back onto the floor at work, will clarify/respond further later) |

Who says I'm wrong? Conservative professors exist, they have biases, and being human, it isn't too far of a logical leap to conclude they may very well be subject to the same exact flaws and foibles any other human being is (ie, bias, etc.). So I'm not wrong, you just are deflecting from my underlying point.
