@denydenzig “According to the Heterodox academy in the 15 years between 1995 and 2010 Universities went from leaning left to being almost entirely on the left.”
Many would suggest that this reflects a change in the “right” more than anything else. 15 years ago the leading politicians on the right were pragmatic conservatives like Bob Dole. The Rush Limbaugh/Fox News/Matt Drudge/Breitbart pull on the GOP was much less, the Tea Party phenomenon had not yet arrived, extremist politicians like Ted Cruz and Jim Jordan did not yet hold any sway.
Except on a few narrow social issues like gay rights, I don’t think the universities have changed that much at all. The definitions of left and right have changed a lot.
