Every single one? Want to bet some real money on that? In my experience econ and business profs are overwhelmingly conservative, professional schools and the sciences can be either, and liberal arts tend to be liberal. Different schools have different cultures, and that mix can change.
Business (mgmt, market, MIS and accounting) yes, but Econ strangely ran out of the civics department and had a hard left skew. But yes. Not a single person in those departments who would identify as a conservative. Whereas the Ag department, every one of them a republican.
Now when I say they were liberal, I don't mean it in my normal conservative way of "I really don't care for liberal policies and thus deflect on them". I really loved my Govt and History professors and they subscribed heavily to classic liberalism and I learned a lot about hearing from the other side.

I believe everyone is somewhat liberal until they receive their first paycheck. The shock of how much is missing leads to anger later in life when you see the governemnt waste.
It all comes back to money and wanting to keep what you earn.

Good point. And those (like a few in this thread) who are really liberal get angry and start the name calling. They don't like to debate.

Professors have a lot of influence on college kids. When someone who is intelligent, well spoken, and respected like Condoleeza Rice is invited they throw a hissy fit and demand she be uninvited. But Ahmadinejad is welcome. A hate mongering, oppressive regime leader who has called for the death of Israel and America.
Trust me this isn't true at all. And the rest of that paragraph is comical.
