UCLA Students Getting Paid to Report on Ultra-Liberal Professors

http://www.uclaprofs.com/

Any thoughts?

As one of the few (it definitely feels that way) conservative students at UCLA, you do really notice liberal professors who refuse to account for other viewpoints in their classes. I've also had professors in completely unrelated subjects take time away from lecture to give their personal views on politics.
However, I don't think that this is the solution. It's created a ton of backlash among the professors, as well as in Los Angeles.

Freedom of speech.

The ultra liberal professors surely support freedom of speech.

It's like that at most schools.

Profesors are the people that live in such a clouded reality they could never function outside of the academic institution. If they tried to apply their wacked out philosophies in a real job setting they would be fired in a second.

If you can't do it, teach it.

This is a pretty wacked out philosophy as well... cause last I checked they do have "real jobs" in a "real job setting".

The exact same thing can be said about conservatives

College prof.s are their own breed anyway. I think we should stay out of this and let them settle it for themselves by throwing books or writing papers or whatever.
