Moral lobotomization on the campuses, revisited

I have often commented that one result of an education at a liberal university is burning the ability to make moral judgments out of the students. My favorite example has been this one, but it is also apparently a problem across the world.

Our universities are protected hothouses for leftist radicalism, and nobody cares. Conservative views are marginalized, and nobody cares. A professor who supported the philosophy of the Nazis would be run out of town on a rail, and properly so, yet Marxists and other members of the psychotic Left not only are tolerated, but encouraged and praised.

This is not new. Ayn Rand displayed this specific characteristic in her character "The Wet Nurse" in "Atlas Shrugged," written in the 1950s.

I am going to take a very firm interest in where my kids get their higher education.
