Steering clear of political discussion, I will add my $.02 on the topic post as well as some who say they've seen bias on both sides.
I've got one semester after this left until I finish up my bachelor's degree. After that, it's grad school. Thus far, in my four years as a college student, I have NEVER, I repeat, NEVER heard a teacher make an outwardly Pro-Bush statement. However, nearly every semester, I have had, at least, one teacher who seemed to feel it was their civic duty to inform me of what their political disposition was. Everything from "Bush's illegal war against an innocent country" to "the most corrupt President in history" has been served up just as if I ordered it.
It's not my personal bias that has left me unable to find a teacher with a conservative bias in their teaching. On the contrary, I've actually looked for it. I feel like an outsider in many classes as teachers rail away to the supportive responses of other whole foods shopping, hippie sandal wearing, pot smoking ****** bags. A teacher making Pro-Bush statements would be a welcome change for me.
I guess I'm expecting too much from as liberal an institution as, say, a public university. I can't wait to hear about this "Free" healthcare thing they're always talking about.
