- Unchecked bias in the classroom is like handing college professors the ballot of every student in America. An American Council of Trustees and Alumni survey finds that half of all students – not just conservatives – at the top 50 colleges say professors frequently inject their political views into courses, and almost one-third think they have to agree with those views to get a good grade.

- Professors should be held to the same standards everyone else is. They need to be respectful and tolerant of others’ religious and political beliefs.

- They're no longer teaching us how to think, but rather what to think. That's not education; it's indoctrination.

- As professional educators, professors should be capable of presenting both sides of an argument, regardless of their personal opinions.

- For professors to ostracize us for our political views is unfair, unprofessional and amounts to ideological harassment.

- Just give us the facts, and let us make up our own minds.

- Universities give great lip service to the cause of racial diversity, but when faced with the question of ideological diversity, the silence is deafening.

- We shouldn't have to avoid certain professors, classes or even departments because of an unfair bias – it's not just liberals who pay taxes and student fees.

- Hitler built his empire by indoctrinating the youngest generation into thinking that Jews were the source of life's problems. Now we face the challenge of professors who force students to think that conservatives are to blame. When will it end?

- The 'glass ceiling' used to refer to the maximum wage a woman could earn; it now refers to the maximum grade a conservative can receive.

- It's one thing to sit in a classroom and spout off about the world's problems and propose idealistic, lofty measures to solve them, but it's another thing entirely to be in the real world and be faced with the consequences of one's problem solving tactics.

- A woman was given the choice to either remove her Bush-Cheney 04' sticker from her car, or not show up to work the next day. She is a professor. They are targets of indoctrination, too!

- Academic bias in the classroom is becoming a rampant epidemic, but we refuse to be institutionalized.

- There is nothing innocent about showing a political documentary that attacks the Bush administration – especially when the film is shown the day before a Presidential election.

- This is not simply about political bias. It's about teaching the subject, enhancing our knowledge and providing a balanced education.

- If a professor made fun of some wearing a Ralph Nader T-shirt, it would be an outrage... when a professor calls a student wearing a Bush-Cheney T-Shirt an "idiot," no one cares.

- Since when did accounting or criminology have anything to do with "Bush’s War for Oil"?

- State employees don’t have the right to say whatever they want on the job. If your state senator's staffer told you to "F@ck off," they would be fired. A professor would be applauded for exercising freedom of speech.
