Articles in the Critical Review report on surveys showing that some 80 percent of higher education’s social scientists voted Democratic in the last presidential election, that this lopsidedness is likely to get worse in the future (it is worse in the younger academic ranks), and that there is “almost no diversity of opinion among the Democratic professors” regarding government intervention.” As to why professors replicate their ranks with like-minded thinkers, Daniel B. Klein, an author of one of the surveys, thinks there is “something about intellectuals and hubris and conceit” within the professoriate, i.e., the leftist monopoly often believes that “we’re smarter” and thus that it has a right to “discriminate against people who get it wrong.” The reform of campus hiring practices is the sine qua non of most other needed changes in higher education.
