The only other place I've encountered the idea of an education being a bad thing was and Ayn Rand novel.

What most people fail to grasp is that the style of education is not what is important.

It is the substance of what we are taught that sustains the collective intellect of this country.

What is "FIRE"?

Foundation for Individual Rights in Education.

Most of their lawyers arent conservatives, but most of their cases involve conservatives getting unfair treatment by Universities. Their biggest issue is with university speech codes.

Follow the link, there is a short film of a feature length documentary about the bias in academia.

I wish that there was a list that said what kind of 'violations' each university has.

You should check your facts on FIRE. The group isnt exactly conservative, even if they represent mostly conservatives. Im just thankful I dont have to deal with partisan hack university boards. A&M is known to be a conservative university, but in reality it has the most politically diverse faculty and political correctness is certainly not the norm like it is on other campuses, on either side(conservative/liberal).

Both sides are guilty of the same thing, and thats speech is only free if you agree with them.

FIRE

Theres a wide range, from conservatives getting threatened and no action taken. To conservatives being railroaded by college officals, to censorship of school newspapers and speech codes in student handbooks.

Well, "FIRE" isn't really about bias - but the documentary is. It's well worth the watch however.

Now on to "FIRE".
This is NOT some Right-wing fringe group(nor did I hear about it through some right-wing email) - they take cases from any/all ideologies and religions.

Here is the link to their case archives Keep in mind that not all of their cases are "archived" due to various privacy concerns or other issues.

True, the film takes on the bias - whereas FIRE takes on institutional problems.

Some of the universities on that list are known for being conservative universities. I wonder if this organization just 'pads' their list.

i may not have enough x's.
and i may have gotten the characters name wrong. which would make the joke pointless. although it sort of is now. i just always enjoyed it when i get allusions.

i was never a big fan of hers.

yeah, i guess i dont have first hand knowledge of this stuff. ill look into it. seems interesting.
my school was not run by a "60s radical" it was run by one of the dudes that (apparently) helped engineer some hardcore atomic weapons.
