“The fact that teachers in the 60’s and early 70’s were exempted from the draft has a lot to do with academia’s position today”

That is a fact, Jack. Without the draft, it would have been a very different scenario. I had intended to teach in college, but felt that the left wing takeover of our academic institutions would have made it very difficult to make a living. It turns out that I was correct in all particulars.

Don't get me wrong, IMO it's not the draft that was the problem. It was the way the bureaucrats implemented it that was problem.
