It's also driven by the fact that academics tend to care about observable reality, and observable reality does not support GOP policies. That's Douchehat's faulty premise here, the notion that professors should do Sleepy Chuck Todd's "both sides amirite" routine

Possibly related: Overton window on campus has not shifted right as it has in society, so divergence seems exacerbated from point of view of the right. Society more willing than campus to accept what used to be right-wing fringe as "conservative."

I think this definitely happened at some of the UC campuses. Science departments used to be reliably pro Military spending center or center right. Crypto restrictions then stem cells then climate denial changed minds.

Gee, conservatives hate education and would rather make 6 figures working at a crypto fascist think tank. There must be a conspiracy to silence conservatives!
