The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

Of course bias can come through on a regular basis. I don't claim to be able to protect them from everything (nor should I). However, when something comes through like this that has (at least to me) very obvious opportunities to push political bias, I don't know why any parent wouldn't want to have an opportunity to be involved.

And yeah, Wilson gacked. Big time.

Depending on where one stands on the issue, one teacher's bias is another teacher's academic freedom.

Indeed. And you would never hear me suggest that those biases not be perimtted in a university setting.
