the classroom is only the tip of the iceberg. The problems at the administration level are what really drive the system.

A liberal bias in academia? What will they think of next? Of course there is a liberal bias in academia. The left liberal crowd are as bigoted in their own way as those whom they condemn and I would venture to say that a conservative will be more likely to listen to a differing opinion than to make snide or condescending comments. I tend to agree with this survey. Of course the left will dispute it.

A few questions about this and other surveys of academia:
Does the survey include the “entire” faculty or primarily the arts, social sciences, and the various “issues” departments with their disciples? If the former, I believe the results grossly understate the extent of left/liberal bias in our colleges and universities. It’s difficult to promote ones political views in physics, chemistry, mathematics, etc.
