Web Site Gathers Complaints About CU Professors
EFL Republican students at the University of Colorado have launched a Web site to gather complaints about left-leaning faculty, saying they want to document incidents of discrimination and indoctrination... Jones and the CU College Republicans are affiliated with Students for Academic Freedom, a national organization started by California conservative activist David Horowitz, who is pushing a Colorado effort to protect students from harassment or discrimination based on political beliefs. "Iâm shocked I mean... holding professors accountable for not doing their job? Travis Leiker, 22, president of the College Democrats at CU, said classrooms are full of different perspectives. But must only discuss and agree with the professorâs viewpoints or face harassment and a lower grade. "I think the conservative students who feel there is a bias are more afraid of hearing points of view different from their own," he said. "You donât see College Democrats doing this with the business or engineering school, which clearly have a conservative bias," Leiker said. "We could play this game as well." Perhaps because those schools dont preach their views from the lecture hall?
