Because of the liberal bias. Because of stories about leveral profs
who
give you bad grades if you prove them wrong.

There are stories that the Holocaust never occurred too.

That sounds like grounds for a lawsuit. Unless of course, it's neocon
bull**** from Rush and the like...

It's because the more you know, the less you agree with them.

So you say.

Well, let's look at your argument: The data clearly shows that
conservatives have less education.


But that's a liberal conspiracy,

If you say so, I sure didn't.

because if you don't agree with liberal professors at liberal colleges,
you don't get good grades.

There are stories to that effect, yes.

"There are stories to the effect" that robots are stealing your luggage.

Which of those stories have any kind of documentation?
There is plenty to give one pause about regarding Conservative students vs.
Liberal Professors.
Note, I'm not saying there is conclusive proof, but there is certainly
enough to make one wonder.

At Columbia, anguished debate followed the screening of a film by an
advocacy group called The David Project that alleges some faculty violate
students' rights by using the classroom as a platform for anti-Israeli
political propaganda (one Israeli student claims a professor taunted him by
asking, "How many Palestinians did you kill?"). Administrators responded
this month by setting up a new committee to investigate students complaints.

In the wider debate, both sides cite the guidelines on academic freedom
first set out in 1915 by the American Association of University Professors.

The objecting students emphasize the portion calling on teachers to "set
forth justly ... the divergent opinions of other investigators." But many
teachers note the guidelines also say instructors need not "hide (their) own
opinions under a mountain of equivocal verbiage," and that their job is
teaching students "to think for themselves."



A reasonable person could conclude that there is a lack of balance.
