The problem with liberal arts universities these days

Is summed up perfectly in this short five minute video.  I chose to use Fox News video feed for a very specific reason:

The flap is surrounding West Liberty University.  Particularly, a visiting professor named Stephanie Wolfe teaching political science.  The first problem is always the most obvious.  Politics at a liberal arts school.  How many of these kids think they were going to get an unbiased opinion of the world?  How does someone like Stephanie actually look at what they are doing and think they are doing the best for the kids they can do?

I mean seriously, someone out there answer me that.  By being so partisan they can’t even accept valid sources of information from an organization that doesn’t believe global warming causes asteroids or feature “news” segments named “worst person in the world“?

There is nothing Fox has done to merit her disdain OTHER than do what it is she claims to be teaching her students to do, and question authority, no matter how politically correct that authority may at first seem.

Stephanie has completely failed in satisfying the guidelines of her own syllabus.

I am SO SURE West Liberty University will do the right thing for the sake of the students.

And you wonder why our kids aren’t competing with India, China, or South Korea any more?  Our college teachers aren’t teaching any more.  They are just using classrooms for indoctrinating their political beliefs.  ( Yeah I know, nothing new there.  But, it needs to STOP. )
