Professors are as herd-like in their opinions as other groups that demographers like to identify -- "working-class white men," for example. Indeed, surely more so Most people to a large extent allow their "consensualist" limbic systems help determine their political views. However, professors as a group are under far more pressure to do so. None of them like to be branded as "stupid". Working classes are far more pluralistic.

We should be feeling sorry for all the poor parents who have worked hard all their lives so their kids can go to college, to be lectured to by 'lost-wits' like Crispin Sartwell. Maybe life has just turned into a joke. Allowing people like this to come to lecture to our kids, (and who is laughing up his sleeve because WE are paying him to impart not much, if any, wisdom) and all the while we know that this guy couldn't get a job in the 'real world'.... en.wikipedia.org crispinsartwell.com
