I have no problem with professors being left-wing. The problem is if they bring political agendas to the classroom. Advocacy is a form of preaching -- not teaching.

Instead of educating students, these professors are trying to indoctrinate them.

We act as if a left-wing agenda is something we should disavow. Of course we don't have an agenda, only the bad guys have an agenda! Yes, you're right, right now, only the bad guys have an agenda. That's why they're winning.

You can't get a real education if your professors are only giving you one side of the story. You also won't get an education if professors are blowing off leftist steam on the war in Iraq or the racist hurricane.

My book is fair comment. The criticism I have of professors is that they aren't professional. Some aren't professional in the classroom the ones portrayed in my book...they have an attitude toward the university that it should be their political soap box.

Left wing, chicken wing, it don't make no difference to me.
