Disclosing that I am a college professor conjures up its own set of stereotypes. While it is true that there has been an upward trend of liberal college professors on our nation’s campuses, especially in the social sciences, it is important not to paint all with the same brush.

The same also applies to passing judgment based upon someone’s choice of candidate in the last presidential election.
