How much of the history of Stanford or MIT do you really
know? Stanford has traditionally been a conservative
bastion except briefly under Donald Kennedy. Also if
you are looking for right wingers who had a major
influence on the foundation of Silicon Valley, look
no further than William Shockley and David Packard.
Similarly, MIT had an extremely conservative (I would
even say narrow) view of engineering education until
WWII. It is only the embarrassment of having physicists
lead the development of radar technology that prompted
a major overhaul of its curricula after WWII.

What exactly are they teaching at UCB? Certainly not
economic history.
