Responsibility

An article in the WSJ on freedom versus responsibility in academic instruction, and how the leftists have distorted textbooks and course curricula in higher education to suit their political leanings.

I'm hoping this problem ends up self-correcting as higher education becomes more oriented toward online delivery. The ensuing market glut and "race to the bottom" in tuition pricing may well put most of the state colleges out of business -- or at the very least force them to dump all those tenured liberals who have infested their halls like so many termites. It would give me great joy to order my hamburger from a former political science professor.
