"Some Republicans are pushing a measure through the House of Representatives meant to ensure that students hear 'dissenting viewpoints' in class and are protected from retaliation because of their politics or religion. Colleges say the measure isn't needed, but with Congress providing billions of dollars to higher education, they are worried," writes the Wall Street Journal. This "Academic Bill of Rights" is from "Marxist-turned-conservative activist David Horowitz [3]" and his organization, Students for Academic Freedom [4]. Through SAF, Horowitz "has called on students to report professors who they think promote a political viewpoint or discriminate against students for their beliefs." As Molly Riordan reports in our latest, just-about-to-hit-mailboxes issue of PR Watch, SAF directed members to investigate the "political party affiliations of university professors" in "humanities and social science departments, which are perceived as more liberal than the sciences."
