NYU Protests: A Deeper Issue in American Academia

The NYPD’s move to remove pro-Hamas occupiers from New York University on Monday night sparked a confrontational response from professors, highlighting the growing dominance of tenured radicals in American higher education. According to surveys, a vast majority of faculty identify as liberal, with a mere fraction identifying as conservative. This left-leaning monoculture has resulted in the silencing of dissenting views and the purging of faculty who challenge the prevailing orthodoxy. As a result, many non-radical professors remain silent, fearing retribution. The issue extends beyond NYU, with anti-Semitism thinly disguised as anti-Zionism becoming commonplace. Donors have gone on strike, demanding that universities address the problem and restore balance to their campuses.
