Is it important to avoid writing with partisanship?

On the BB2 answer explanation website on CB, I’ve read a few essays chosen as 6s that express a conservative viewpoint. Test 1, 6 score essay:



When a student goes through formal education, he must be on his guard when it comes to what he absorbs. In the midst of objective facts, all too often a teacher may attempt to indoctrinate him with the teacher’s own ideology. One need only look at the majority of United States universities. There are thousands of easily-accessed articles exposing documented incidences of teachers boldly instilling in their students the liberal ideology. Universities are cesspools of leftist professors who punish students who express differences of opinion. Yet without those few questioning students, the rest of the student body would be subjected to unadulterated liberal lectures, with nary an opposing view in earshot. In order to form proper opinions, students must be exposed to both sides of an issue, and both sides must be questioned so as to ascertain the truth of each.



I am a very left leaning liberal, so I’m afraid of writing something that the readers might disagree with. I assume that the majority of the readers will be liberal, so am I just being paranoid in seeing all these conservative essays on the CB BB2 site?
