"Shut Up," The Professor Explained...
Most U.S. College Students Afraid to Disagree with Professors
Many U.S. college professors now regularly share their own social and political beliefs in class, and their students feel increasingly afraid to disagree. That’s according to a new national survey of undergraduates due out next week.
When students were asked if they’ve had “any professors or course instructors that have used class time to express their own social or political beliefs that are completely unrelated to the subject of the course,” 52% of respondents said that this occurs “often,” while 47% responded, “not often.”
How does this differ from sexual harassment in the workplace? A professor has total control over the grades of his students, and subjecting them to political indoctrination that must be accepted on pain of grade penalty is just like a boss demanding sex in exchange for job security. Well, maybe not identical, but it is an abuse of power and should be dealt with in the same way.

#metoo for politics!
