How did this slip into the College Republicans discussion?

When I was a student we thought that the faculty, with a few notable exceptions, was way too conservative, lead by the government, history and econ departments.
Then there were the Jesuits many of whom wanted to bring back The Spanish Inquisition.

Now many students and alumni consider the faculty way too liberal.
