How Radical Professors Indoctrinate Students - David Horowitz (2 of 8)

A professors job is not to tell students what to think; it is to help them to think carefully, critically, and for themselves. There is a legitimate place for the catechist, the preacher, the social activist, and the community organizer; but that place is not the university classroom. Professors who seek to indoctrinate their students violate a sacred trust. They should be forcefully challenged and publicly held to account. In One-Party Classroom, David Horowitz does just that. The book should provoke a discussion of the ethics of classroom instruction that is long overdue.
—Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence and Director of the James Madison Program
in American Ideals and Institutions, Princeton University

Definitive proof that, whether they succeed or not, thousands of professors go to work every day with the intention of indoctrinating their students in their personal political prejudices.
—Candace de Russy, former trustee, State University of New York

One-Party Classroom shows how far American universities have drifted from academic principles. The politicized courses described here are indeed among the worst cases. What is truly shocking is the unwillingness of university authorities to do anything about them.
—Stephen H. Balch, founder and president, National Association of Scholars

Reveals how political activists masquerading as academics dominate our liberal arts colleges. Regents and trustees need to become engaged in this important battle to restore academic rigor, standards, and accountability to our institutions of higher learning.
—Tom Lucero, regent, University of Colorado

There is not a university leader in this country who would not be better for confronting the well-reported case studies in David Horowitzs book.
—Frederick Mohs, former trustee, University of Wisconsin

@RratsArtStudio Oh puh-leaze.

I am a "right-winger" in academia, and whenever I challenge my fellow students on their views, they either simply fold up and drop the discussion or respond with wild emotions. Both are byproducts of having your views given to you by others (in their case, the Daily Show and SNL), and never having their substance challenged.

Academia is not a haven for "open-minded" people. Its a haven for groupthinkers.

@RratsArtStudio typical (faux)liberal bigoted snobbery.

[onlooker510]

Just remember, universities LIVE in an Ivory Tower removed from REALITY. No day to day or actual WORK experience. Just living off there parents or the government.

[RratsArtStudio]

Of course most educated people are liberals. You have to have an open mind to learn. Leave it to the right and we'd still be teaching Jesus and creation, or now it is as the right has rebranded it - creationism. If I ever had a class with a right winger I'd discontinue it immediatly.

If he wants his "right winged" ideas to get heard...publish a book. Otherwise, stay out of the universities.

Horowitz is ridiculously partisan and neonutty on many issues including foreign policy but on his critique of The Academy I agree.
