Daniel Klein and
Andrew Western developed evidence and analysis of political affiliations in academia.
Specifically, they compare professor names in 23 departments at Berkeley and Stanford
with compiled political registration information in seven surrounding counties. With
their matching methodology,1
they find information on 1005 professors out of 1497
investigated. For these professors, party affiliation is overwhelmingly Democratic
Right, well no surprises there.
The wide ranging evidence supports general claims of “ideological lopsidedness in academia”. Second, they argue that this lopsidedness has a significant effect on students since academia is a “major part of political culture and it has a deep influence on students understanding of the world and of themselves.”
We all know they have been indoctrinated
So all those pundits, liberals, progressives, libertarians and media graduates are conveyed out on a left leaning conveyor belt to loud hailer their progressive causes.
These soi disant (so called) educated types then from some indoctrinated moral height feel superior enough to call others 'deplorables'
The prevalence of progressive professors in institutions of higher education, some argue, has created an environment that prioritizes political correctness above truthfulness. A report by the California Association of Scholars, put together in 2012 for the UCLA, argues that the lack of balance between liberal and conservative viewpoints has contributed to a culture that espouses socio-cultural and political apologists, whilst marginalizing those with center-right viewpoints
