Andrew Sullivan has been running a series of posts about people’s jobs on his blog, The Daily Dish. Today’s Dish includes the blog, “About My Job: The Community College Professor.” Here’s the first paragraph. It’s worth reading the whole piece. (It’s about economics and empathy and the “American Dream.”)
I believe the assumption is that instructors are the product of a liberal-biased education and then we decide to join that liberal bastion and are just going with the established flow. For those of us in the junior college ranks, however, I think there is a more concrete reason for the lean left, rather than the abstract leftism offered in certain courses we took as students.
