BRAINWASHING OUR KIDS – AT 11:09 A.M. ET:  When our kids go to college, what do they find?  Left wingers, that's what.  And unless this changes, we're going to have a future led by brainwashed graduates. 

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is one of our most important universities.  But look at this breakdown.  From College Fix:   

Professors registered as Democrats outnumber those registered as Republicans by a ratio of roughly 12 to one at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill – and in 15 departments zero registered Republican professors can be found – according to educators’ registered party affiliations.

The College Fix researched the political party registrations of 1,355 UNC Chapel Hill professors using the state’s online public voter database, maintained by the State Board of Elections.

Of those, 615 were registered Democrats, while only 50 were registered Republicans, a ratio of about 12 to one.

The remaining party affiliations included 299 professor who are unaffiliated (in North Carolina, voters can register as unaffiliated), 291 professors whose names could not be found the database, and 98 professors’ whose party affiliations could not be determined. Two professors are registered libertarians.

Even with the high number of professor party affiliations that could not be determined, the results found Democrat professors outnumber Republican ones in every single department surveyed, and what’s more, nearly half of the 34 departments probed found no registered Republicans at all.

Those 16 departments are:

African-American Studies
American Studies
Anthropology
Art
Asian Studies
Biology
Classics
Communications
Environmental Science
Genetics
Geology
History
Linguistics
Marine Sciences
Public Policy
Women’s Studies

Asked by The College Fix to comment on the results, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill spokesman Jim Gregory said via email that the university “does not hire faculty based upon their political affiliation, but instead upon academic merit.”

“That said, we also feel that it is important for students to be confronted with views that they may not agree with or have not previously been exposed to, which we believe leads to the development of critical thinking skills,” he said.

COMMENT:  What a laugh.  In practice the "views" that students are exposed to are all on the left.  And it's clear that many professors see their role not as educators but as "change agents."
