The Arkansas Times has an article on Robert Maranto, a Fayetteville professor who is a moderate Republican. That makes him unique. He is the co-author of a new book, The Politically Correct University: Problems, Scope and Reforms.

I don't believe most people realize how rampant political correctness is in higher education. In history, literature, and the social sciences, it is a roadblock to free speech and free thought. Most of what students listen to in classes, even on small, supposedly conservative campuses, is far left wing. They only hear half of the story, but they hear it all the time, and none of the other half.

Surely you realize that the Arkansas Times is a left wing publication itself. See their cover story on health care.
