The indoctrination is becoming so blatant in our schools that teachers are openly teaching 3rd graders that there is an evil 1%, and the local school district is so okay with it that they are defending them. These are your tax dollars at work in America.

No indoctrination. If you don't like higher education in America, move out of our country. If you're a real patriot, you'll stay and get an education

Have I come down with Rip van Winklitis, missing the moment when Congress was urged to amend the Constitution for this kind of gem so fervently desired “for the kids” by a UMass Psychology prof? In a letter to the editor of the Daily Hampshire Gazette, Maureen Perry-Jenkins exhorted Amherst residents to approve a property tax hike. Boy! Do the (liberal) academics love those babies! Her primary reason? “ … every child has a fundamental right to a high quality education; it is this right that opens up our minds, our opportunities and our futures.” Lady, I’m not sure about the minds, etc., but I’m sure you’re hoping Amherst residents’ wallets will be opened wide. Thank God we’re in Hadley!

According to Nassovian, property is more important than people. Perhaps we should release Bernie Madoff to enjoy his 'property', and murder the sick and infirm.

Horowitz based much of his so-called student movement on the Nava scandal, and basically tried to weasel out of it. Of course there are scandals on both sides, but only Horowitz made a federal case out of Nava. But thanks for recognizing that Nava was a charlatan, which simply proves my point.

Excellent submission by Tom. Notice the photos. Yep, many of the same "usual suspects" hit David Horowitz' lecture as those who ever so politely hit Don Fedor's. Same room, too. Something else, too. Same university where Hubert Humphrey, less than a year after losing to President Nixon, was rudely treated and booed so badly and loudly while he was trying to address the crowd in the old Curry Hicks Cage Arena — (sorry Tom, in my reply to your post, I accidently wrote Cooley Dickinson, the local hospital … LOL! or was it a Freudian slip!) — that the talk had to be stopped before things got out of hand. Humphrey later gave the speech on the local UM radio station from Amherst College's Boltwood Tavern. Some "college traditions" seldom fade away…especially at some institutions.

Imagine a world with Congressional term limits, and with no tenure protection for university professors. It took great effort, time and expense to rid Colorado University of Ward Churchill—though he should not have been teaching there to begin with. Before his outrageous, public statement about America deserving the 9-11 attack—which eventually led to his exposure as an academic fraud—who knows how many young minds he had poisoned??

Amherst Townie (Conclusion): I’ll never forget the contempt shown by the dominate lettered leftist professorial clique in TM towards Amherst’s blue collar workers when a garbage delivery service owner addressed the august body, only to be distracted by people talking, newspapers all of a sudden pulled out for reading and the lady academics busy knitting their next scarves. My wife and I will always be Amherst “Townies,” even though we had to move to more affordable Hadley because Amherst’s leftist professoriate TM never met a tax hike it didn’t like; the real working class will [always] be damned.

Amherst Townie II: I vividly recall the debates on whether or not Amherst was to declare itself a “nuclear free zone” (which it did) during the depths of the final death rattle days of the Evil Empire. And there were debates on whether or not to allow the Air Force to build a high radio tower it needed to develop a new early warning system to complement its much older system north of the Arctic Circle. “Oh, it’d send the wrong message to the Soviets … “ etc., ad (very) nauseum. Sure, I some editorial liberty, but these debates took place, and Town Meeting predictably took the Ramsay MacDonald, Stanley Baldwin and Neville Chamberlain ostrich positions on these and other “foreign policy” matters. Author Tracy Kidder said Amherst is perhaps the only town with its own foreign policy. For this “distinction” we can thank TM members who are also UM and other Five College (Amherst, Smith, Hampshire & Mount Holyoke Colleges to round out the list.)

As a former UMass/Amherst employee & sometime journalism student, (and news reporter/columnist in Amherst) and Amherst “Townie,” I wasn’t particularly surprised to find Mr. Horowitz’s findings of leftist bias in the classrooms. For the past 40 years, the university has been dominated by the Left and I fully expect it to be dominated for another 40. The reason is quite simple: The left wants it that way and turned Amherst, its local Town government, its public schools and economic structure into an academic elitist theme park wherein only well-heeled left of center academics will find themselves welcome. One only needs to attend Amherst’s elected Town Meeting (TM) every Spring and Fall to watch the elitists at work, especially when a pet ideologically charged issue or property tax hike is on the docket.
