Shawnski have you ever wondered why there are so many 'Liberal' and 'leftist' professors? Is it all indoctrination? If you have ever attended a university you would probably know that the paramount teaching any professor gives is to think for yourself so I don't buy the indoctrination thing one bit.
The reason universities and professors are leftist is because frankly there are a lot of really good arguments which support these decisions and alot of crap arguments used by conservatives. Feminism and women's studies was at the vanguard of deconstructing many of the social norms and arguments we have and exposing them as utter crap. In fact some of those theories are so rock solid that the only vantage you have to argue agaist demonstrates you as a bigot. In a profession where open mindedness and critical thought is the most important aspect of your work you tend to be 'Liberal'.
