That is the University of Oregon — ONE UNIVERSITY.
How goes the situation in universities and colleges around the country ?
Pretty much the same. Engineering and Science departments are a little more conservative-friendly (mostly because they tend to be apolitical), but Humanities and Liberal Arts faculty are overwhelmingly liberal just about everywhere (I can speak for 5 universities of varying size in a red state, no less). I think that just about everyone who has been to a state university recently (and many private ones, too) will agree...
I suspect it is identical in 85% of the schools. Even Oregon State University (the engineering, oceanography, agricultural emphasizing school) was going that direction.
We need to raise kids that we send to become college professors and media spokesmen (journalists). Don’t look for it to take less than 20 years to begin to recapture America to Americans.
The answer will not be political clout (who’s listening?). The answer will not be a strong single leader (the colleges and media innoculate the listeners against them). The answer will not be laws (the liberal lawyers defeat their intent)
The answer is voters who are taught the truth.
Business schools and economics departments tend to have a few more Republicans, but the majority are Democrats.
For example, Ed Prescott at Arizona State University, the Nobel Laureate in Economics, is a staunch Republican. Jeffrey Coles, the finance department chairman, is staunch Democrat. Coles was a big supporter of John Edwards.
Why the difference?
College professors are typical lazy union workers (those with tenure). The untenured ones are afraid to anger their union masters (the tenured faculty), so they tend to be liberal as well.
Ed Prescott is a world-class talent who doesn’t need tenure. The majority of college professors would be unemployable if tenure was taken away. Coles makes $350,000 per year which strikes me as insane given Arizona’s horrific budgetary problems. Being a Democrat helps if you want to be on the public dole like Coles.
The situation around the country is terrible. Leftists vastly outnumber Conservatives.
Indoctrination U:The Left’s War Against Academic Freedom
Product Description
In 2003, David Horowitz began a campaign to promote intellectual diversity and a return to academic standards in American universities. To achieve these goals he devised an Academic Bill of Rights and created a national student movement with chapters on 160 college campuses. Take No Prisoners is a riveting account of the reaction to Horowitz’s campaign by professor unions and academic associations, whose leaderships have been taken over by the political left.

In addition there are several organizations that fight the campus bias
FIRE (The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education)
and Students for Academic Freedom

Also a big problem at universities are the huge endowments coming from Arab Gulf Wahabbi sources funding Middle East Studies Departments.
