How do liberal academics suppress the expression of conservative ideas on college campuses? Some conservatives have claimed that liberal academics attempt to suppress the expression of conservative ideas on college campuses by enacting speech codes. By this, I'm assuming that they're referring to "political correctness". Personally, I don't see how this is true. After all, the speech codes on campuses usually ban such things as sexual harassment, racial slurs, and other forms of harassment. How does this in any way suppress the expression of conservative ideas? Not only that, but there's certainly no shortage of College Republicans chapters! alex l: Actually, I HAVE been on a college campuse. I happen to have a B.A. in Spanish with a minor in German.While a few of my instructors were openly liberal, most of them didn't mention their political views. Also, believe it or not, I actually dated a Republican for a brief time. He had a history professor who was openly liberal. They sometimes debated their views in class, but they always did so respectfully and they actually LIKED one another. Kim: Me imagino que nunca has estudiado en una universidad, cabrona.:)

Why don't academics become politicians or hold elected office? It just seems logical to put the smartest, most ethical people, in the most impt positions. But there has only been one U.S. President to hold a Phd (Wilson). And academics rarely are elected to Congress.

Teachers, do you think there should be less competition in athletics and more competition in academics? In American schools it seems like we place all this competitive emphasis on athletics and a lot of the kids get left out and don't get the chance to participate and exercise and socialize through sports. I think it's really a shame, especially with the childhood obesity issues today. Then on the other hand we have no competition in academics and kids often feel like they get no reward and they have no motive to excel in academics. Other countries make testing and grades into a competition. What do you think, teachers?

How about rebuilding the UN with academics instead of politicians? I.E. - Invite academics from every subject and from every country to attend instead of letting countries choose their representatives because they will invariably send hard-nosed politicians that only care about protecting their particular country's interests.

The problem with using average everyday people is that they are NOT knowledgeable. Is it not reasonable to use educated people? Sure they have egos and they argue incessantly but so does everybody. Feel free to keep offering up suggestions... ...we're listening

Why do academics draw different conclusions about the same issue? I have read many research papers / books by academics, who provide different interpretations / conclusions about one particular issue. Normally, academics, who work at university, are respected for their supposed objectivity and accuracy. So why are there so many different conclusions? There must be one who's right, and another's wrong? And if two academics give two different conclusions, how can both of them retain their job? It makes one feel there is no standard to judge their works.
