[quote="KevinTheHerbivore"]Schools and departments within universities, including state universities, hire internally. If the chair of a political science department happens to favor quantitative research over historical/theory based research, they will push to hire around that premise. New faculty are hired by committees, including the chair, generally. They will hire according to need, because a department is far more concerned with appealing to a broad spectrum than appealing to simply "Liberals."[/url]

However, no professor at a state subsidized school should allow his biased views to influence the way he teaches.

Now, if the argument is that liberals in general tend to be drawn to academia, then that's a totally different matter. One, might I add, not exclusive to Colorado State.
I would not say that liberals tend to be drawn to academia any more than others.
