You can get a pretty good idea of where academics are coming from politically and where they expect their junior colleagues to fall on the political spectrum by what they tell each other, particularly when they put it down on paper.

Academics’ attitudes towards the South color their teaching about the region, particularly lessons on the Civil War, and their histories, thus, often project myth rather than reality.

College professors trying to make young Evangelicals see the secular light might be making some headway, at least, according to the more left-leaning of these people of faith.

When a progressive think tank and America’s leading business group get together and critique education in the United States, it’s official and getting more so—public schools may be getting progressively more expensive but they fail to deliver the service they claim to offer.

When you compare the racial attitudes of Woodrow Wilson, FDR and Ronald Reagan, guess who comes out on top?

The faithful are increasingly likely to face hostility to their beliefs in secular educational settings, the Catholic League’s 2007 Report on Anti-Catholicism shows.

When feminists attempted to open up college sports opportunities for women via federal Title IX regulations, national enforcement of these rules had the perhaps unintended consequence of hastening the demise of men’s teams at the collegiate level. Now they are attempting something much more ambitious—the feminization of science.

The folks at Diversity Inc. have posted an etiquette guide that is sure to be consulted by university human resource offices called “7 Things Never to Say to LGBT Coworkers.”

Sometimes you can better understand the rule by meeting the exception to it. Such an example may be law school teaching on property rights in comparison with University of Chicago professor Richard A. Epstein’s vigorous defense of same.

Oddly, even reporters on the education beat seem to have failed to grasp the significance of a meeting that took place 44 years ago of the Catholics they like to cover the most—the Kennedy family and Jesuit theologians.

Although Catholic schools look good when compared with their public counterparts, they don’t fare as well in contrast to the way they used to be.

If you think that you can go to your school board with complaints about teacher union efforts to block education reforms, think again.
