INDOCTRINATION STUDIES

Academic indoctrination by leftist professors is rampant in American college and university classrooms. This section of Discover The Networks shows examples of this indoctrination in action. The curricula and courses listed on this page do not represent comprehensive listings, either for the universities in question or for universities generally. They are intended only to illustrate the problem of academic indoctrination, where institutions of higher education fail to fulfill what UC Berkeley president Robert Gordon Sproul identified as "the function of the university" in 1934, or fail to protect the "academic freedom" that Professor Stanley Fish described in 2006.
