New Meaning of "Liberal" Education

Universities set record for choosing "liberal" commencement speakers.

The liberal tilt of America’s top colleges and universities has gone off the charts with the ratio of liberal-to-conservative commencement speakers reaching 7-1, an all-time high, according to a new survey of graduation ceremonies at the top 100 schools.

“It was particularly awful this year,” said Ron Meyer of the Young America’s Foundation, which conducted the survey. “The ratio has never been this bad.”

Meanwhile... more Americans identify themselves as "conservative" than any other group. Twice as many as identify as liberal.

Go figure.
