POLITICAL DIVERSITY IN THE ACADEMIA

Dan Lawton writes on the political diversity (really the lack of it) at the University of Oregon.

The University of Oregon, where I study journalism, invested millions annually in a diversity program that explicitly included “political affiliation” as a component. Yet of the 111 registered Oregon voters in the departments of journalism, law, political science, economics and sociology, there were only two registered Republicans.

I guess there are no libertarians.
