This doesn’t seem to be a problem with STEM degrees in the same way, but it appears that an extraordinarily high percentage of social science and arts academics are ‘liberal’-left leaning, some of whom are happy to have young minds for 3 years to convert to their way of thinking by demonising those with other views.
A Cardiff uni academic has been exposed for this but I know how widespread this is from my own children’s experience.
The hypocrisy of privileged ‘liberals’ in academia who spout vitriol against those who have a different (but equally valid) view is astounding.
It is something to bear in mind when your DC choose unis and courses and who they will be exposed to for 3 years. They are a very poor example to our children.
