Inside Higher Ed cites two studies on why college and university professors tend to be more liberal than the rest of the population. It's not bias, it's self-selection, we are told. I don't buy it, bias is the reason and it goes back into graduate school.
Some fields are worse than others. Among the most liberal are sociology, social sciences in general, history, literature, speech. Business and the sciences are not so bad.
But I think the whole culture of higher education is strongly biased. It has been that way for a long time.
