Surveys at major schools show that close to 80% of faculty voted for Democrat John Kerry In 2004, About 1% voted for Ralph Nader, while only 20% voted for President Bush. Social science professors, gave Ralph Nader about 20% of the 2004 vote, as large as that for President Bush.
This indicates the balance you get from those teaching college kids. But it gets more slanted when the study delves into specific areas.
Liberals outnumber conservatives by 11-1 among social scientists and 13-1 among humanities professors. As many as 25% of those who teach sociology actually consider themselves Marxist.
Surprise: Business school professors who are believed to be primarily conservative, actually voted 2-1 for Kerry.
At major, graduate schools offering Ph.Ds, over 60% of faculty are Democrats, 30% are independents and 10% are Republicans.
This demonstrates the problems in attempting to educate college students, particularly those who become our future teachers, community leaders, and members of the media.
