Cross, there are as many libertarian students at Hillsdale as conservatives, which are as divergent on many issues (if not moreso) than the conservative / liberal divide. Engagement is frequent, sometimes heated, but usually polite. Your reference to “a professor” is highly suspect. I’d need to hear a name before I believed it. (And if you say “John Reist,” he was joking. Partly.) Even then, that kind of forthrightness would be laudable compared to many other schools, especially in the liberal arts, where professors blatantly mark down nonconformist thoughts while claiming it’s purely academic.

It’s fine to comment as a Hillsdale resident, but you don’t go to the college and in this case it shows.
