Left-wing campus bias: Worse than you thought

Do college students – and their parents – truly understand how thoroughly left-wing professors dominate the humanities side of academia?
Many people know that most professors are liberal, but the degree to which the left wing rules is jaw-dropping. A study published last September in Econ Journal Watch, “Faculty Voter Registration in Economics, History, Journalism, Law, and Psychology,” documents the overwhelming left-wing nature of the voter registration of college profs at 40 leading universities. An examination of voter registration in five departments found that Democrats outnumber Republicans by 11.5-to-1. Even in economics, where one would think that views would be driven by data, not politics, Democrats outnumbered Republicans 4.5-to-1. History was practically foreign terrain for Republicans, as Democrats outnumbered them 33.5-to-1.
