An interesting situation has arisen at Central Michigan University. The university hired a Democratic Congressional candidate to teach one class a week but at a full-time salary. A student became upset at what he perceived to be support of this candidate with tax-payer funds. His efforts have drawn the ire of the university which is now trying to kick him out.
Here is the story. I don’t think anyone is still so naive as to believe that universities are neutral in politics but few show the blatant favoritism of this story.
