More evidence of the liberal academy

So a conservative student wants to get a degree from a Rhode Island school of social work.
A progressive professor doesn't think the student will fit in:


"Felkner said his problems with his professors began in his first semester, in the fall of 2004, when he objected in an e-mail to one of his professors that the school was showing and promoting Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11" on campus. He said he objected because no opposing point of view was presented. He said Professor James Ryczek wrote to him on Oct. 15, 2004, saying he was proud of his bias and questioning Felkner's ability to "fit with the profession." "I think the biases and predilections I hold toward how I see the world and how it should be are why I am a social worker. In the words of a colleague, I revel in my biases," he wrote."

I think many liberals "revel" in their biases. They just won't admit it.
Read the whole story; it sounds all too believable.
