LIBERAL U OF M PROFESSOR WRITES HATE COLUMN ON CONSERVATIVES, MI REPUBLICANS STAND UNITED AGAINST BIGOTRY:
Ivory-tower liberalism in America Is alive and well with the most recent example of political persecution of conservatives by liberal professors in academia occurring right here in Michigan this week.
University of Michigan Professor Susan Douglas wrote a vitriolic rant espousing her "hatred" for Republicans.
The Michigan State Republican Party Chairman Bobby Schostak described Douglas' comments as "...ugly and full of hatred...." and demanded that such vitriol "...not be tolerated by the university..."
After a massive backlash from students, parents, and the media, Douglas attempted to clarify that what she actually meant by writing the article was to "bemoan the rise of political animosity" in the country.
Apparently this liberal professor felt the best method of creating an inclusive campus absent of animosity was the pen a slanderous thesis whose title speaks volumes regarding its far more sinister purpose: "Why I Hate Republicans"
The Albion College Conservatives explicitly condemns this egregious abuse of academic authority with regards to University of Michigan Professor Susan Douglas' imexcusable discrimination. Until she was actually caught and her hypocrisy elucidated, Douglas was ostensibly imposing these prejudicial views on her students in what amounted to a hostile, conservative-shaming class ---------all paid for courtesy of the students who paid for an unbiased education and instead received a bigoted indictment of their most intimate political beliefs-----the cornerstone of American poltical freedom and diversity.
Professors are entitled to their personal political viewpoints, albeit those views must be balanced with the notion that as officiates of higher learning they are bound by moral and ethical standards of decency as well, and must therefore demonstrate acceptance of students whose political or religious views may be adverse to their own. Vocally slandering those views as a means of intentionally intimidating or denigrating the political views of particular students is absolutely abhorrent and should be unacceptable----regardless of whether someone is "liberal", or "conservative".
