      No need to read this, coz we have @NickWolfinger's assurances that academia has no systemic intolerance to ideas problem. It's just a few bad apples at a few elite institutions.https://twitter.com/NickWolfinger/status/962199529033408513 …

      I’m with @sullydish in spirit here, but people really need to stop thinking that “cultural Marxism” is ubiquitous at universities. It’s limited mostly to elite private schools & certain area studies programs. https://twitter.com/nfergus/status/962047679034306561 …

      Hey, um, @i_aver, that’s not what I said in the tweet you’ve cited. But read @PsychRabble’s excellent article anyway.

      I searched “elite from:@nickwolfinger”, and distilled a composite argument. “Just a few bad apples at elite institutions” is a satirical simplification to which you’ve left yourself open.pic.twitter.com/R6cEkbOEZ8

      Downplaying is an offensive strategy. I don’t think it’s really the most effective; but we have to find something. Strong vocal opinions are only popular among a certain ideological subset; but the silent students will get degrees, too.

      If curriculum had no effect on how students see the world no one would have bothered changing it "A prof told me there is no meaning. I took him at his word and stopped listening." Academe & media liability for cultural shift is res ipsa loquitur only question is proportion

      What the article shows is that even if the problem is limited to “few radicals at few elite institutions”, it’s up to those in the institutions that value academic freedom to oppose it. Silence and passivity is acquiescence. Why is it mainly ppl on the *outside* fighting this?pic.twitter.com/ZSrLd2sLE5

      Perhaps because internal opposition isn’t visible to the outside world? If faculty argue that a new hire shouldn’t be a postmodernist, who will ever know?

      Genuine question: is it OK for university job ads for tenure track faculty to require a 'demonstrated commitment to diversity, inclusion, and equity'? Or is that a dog whistle for requiring progressive values?

      Don’t you think it depends on the Telos of the university in question? Is the university (or perhaps the department) dedicated to Truth, or to Social Justice. If the former, then the question is inappropriate.

      I don't think that public universities supported by taxpayers can legally discriminate based on political ideology.

          I'm not sure why you'd think that. Politics is not religion (though don't press yr luck) or otherwise a protected class. Conservatives v. The Academy would be the slam dunkest lawsuit of all time if so: http://heterodoxacademy.org/?p=822 pic.twitter.com/08HaE9GJHE

          You're assuming it's discrimination. The best book on the subject suggests it's mostly self-selection. https://books.google.com/books/about/Why_Are_Professors_Liberal_and_Why_Do_Co.html?id=5-VLm9EcghoC …
