Folks, read the story. Parents are NOT checking in on what the kids are learning or whether the professors are cramming their heads full of liberal mush. If that's what they feared, there are conservative schools they can send them to.
They're calling to see why somebody at the college isn't waking Junior up in time for class; why Junior didn't get a nicer roommate or a dorm with fewer people sharing the bathroom; or why the school doesn't have a 5-star chef preparing all the meals. They call to complain because Junior, who missed half his classses, didn't get straight A's or because Junior didn't get the classes he wanted after he registered three days late. They raise heck when a professor won't give Junior an extension for an assignment or let him retake a test he didn't bother to study for. And they call the dean of students or elsewhere to get school information for Junior instead of insisting Junior call for it himself.
I work at a university. All of the above examples are real. Folks of ALL ideologies have coddled their kids (this is without question the most coddled and protected generation of kids ever) and they believe that paying tuition buys them whatever they demand.
Probably they are calling because Junior is offered a class in Oral Sex or he is being indoctrinated by a commie professor. That's why the college is deterring it.
