Most professors whom I know want more than just injecting knowledge of a subject into a head they want to have student's learn to THINK.. To do this there must be opposing positions... when available... I agree with all of that. But strong bias in academia works against that goal not for it. And I don't think that the academic fraud and extreme statements of someone like Ward Churchill are necessary or even beneficial in the effort to achieve that goal.
