I was once taught polisci by a man who was a marxist. It was fun because he never would admit to it, but then would talk about the failings of capitalism and the conservative liberalists. I always expected him to start talking about how communism in Russia "could have worked" but he never quite said that.

I not really suprised... guessing he was a older or tenured professor. After all the 60s-70s saw the rise of Marxist theory applied to most humanties or social science - or re-interpreting everything as aspects of "class struggle". Luckily these professors are slowing fading out, and a return to a more academically un-biased approach (of course personal beliefs tend to still leach in... such as in my Modern Middle East History course or my Modern Irish History course).
