[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really what matters too is the program of study. The school that I went to was fairly liberal, but i majored in accounting/finance and those departments leaned center-right.[/quote]I think this is true. Also I think the approach of individual professors varies. I'm quite far left but back in the day when I was teaching I believed it was important to challenge my students whether they were on the left or the right in order to get them to think about their position and be able to argue effectively for it. OTOH I also knew of profs who couldn't bear to let someone say something they disagreed with without telling them that they were wrong. Set my teeth on edge. The criticism is way overblown but there are some liberals [b]-- some -- [/b] who are intolerant of other views, just like there are conservative professors who are the same way. Not a good way to teach and mentor young people in my view.[/quote]
