There are several reasons why liberals dominate universities. The first is that what you often end up with is a consentrated group of individuals whose never had to learn the hard lessons of life that helps burn away the childishness of youth. They live in a protected world where postering an intellectually bullying is accepted as a substitute for reasoning. They create a world with rules that cater to the depraved and insolent. We can defeat them by infiltrating their world and highlighting the things they say within their ivory towers for all to ridicule.

The communists (read: liberals) dominate the universities because communists have always understood, and still do, as conservatives unfortunately do not these days, that if they can dominate the life of the mind they can dominate the culture.

So, they have always tried to produce massive numbers of credientaled intellectuals from within their communist ranks; and they have succeeded, and now they control the organs of culture creation in the Western world.

Until conservatives come to understand the ultimate importance in nurturing the life of the mind in the universities, there will be no basis for permanently turning the culture back in a more conservative direction. Historically speaking, the universities are inherently conserving, and even Christian institutions. They have, after all, been with us for a over a millenium, thanks largely to the work of Christians in the Carolingian renaissance (9th century). This new domination by communists has overturned their essential character, and now it is time to take them back. But that means good people have to get Ph.D.’s in fields like philosophy, law, politics, history, English, etc.

As a friend of mine often puts it, while the conservatives are out running their business, trying to make a buck, the people whom they consider to be useless are shaping the minds of their children.
