-Professor values are currently one of the most prevalent forms of [[liberal]] indoctrination.

-Professors rarely engage in wrongdoing while completing research.  "About 1,000 potential incidents of fabrication, falsification or plagiarism in scientific research go unreported every year, according to a survey that suggests such misconduct is far more prevalent than suspected. ... 22 percent was by a professor or senior scientist."<ref>http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601124&sid=aYFanemP24yM&refer=home</ref>

-Politicians are routinely given high-ranking academic positions.  Examples include:
-* [[Al Gore]]<ref>Beginning early in 2001, "Gore will be [at UCLA] to develop a new curriculum for family-centered community building, a multidisciplinary approach that brings together authorities from such fields as education, business and public policy to work on problems that ail our society and affect our children. ...  He also will be teaching at three other universities - Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism, Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro and Fisk University in Nashville - in addition to his teaching and research work at UCLA."

Young America's Foundation later placed Beech on [[Fox News]]'s "[[Hannity and Colmes]]" to expose this and other intolerant e-mail. The resulting outrage ultimately forced Daly to resign and for the president to issue an apology, stating that faculty would now be required to undergo [[free speech]] sensitivity training from now on.<ref>http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=47461</ref>

-*Professors engage in [[grade inflation]], giving their students artificially high grades&mdash;whether they deserve them or not.  In addition, classes have been dumbed down at most universities and require much less work than previously.
-*On August 7, 2009, the above-mentioned [[Paul Zachary Myers|PZ Myers]] visited Answers in Genesis' Creation Museum in [[Kentucky]] with a large group of students.

-*[[Jean-Paul Sartre]] committed a lot of [[polygamy]], often seducing many of his own female students while in a relationship with Simone de Beauvoir, often having the latter procure several girls for him to seduce. This behavior was common enough that he became dangerously well-known for it by the early 1940s, with Robert Francis, in a hostile criticism of ''Huis clos'', specifically remarking on this behavior by writing "We all know Monsieur Sartre. He is an odd philosophy teacher who has specialized in the study of his students' underwear." He also wrote various letters after his womanizing that were vulgar in the description of their sexual relationships. He also frequently did false proposals to marriage to various women, including de Beauvoir. He also largely supported [[Stalin]]ist [[Russia]], and was also responsible for referring to [[Argentine]] [[Marxist]]-[[terrorist]]/[[revolutionary]] [[Che Guevara]] as "the most complete human being to have ever existed."
-*[[Simone de Beauvoir]] acted as a procuress for Sartre for his various sexual escapades. She also has done a threesome sexual relationship where she and Sartre secretly mocked the woman behind her back. She also has been rumored to have molested several of her own students, also being brought to charges with one of them, Sorokine. She also wrote in her book ''L'Invitee'' the murder of Olga Kosakiewicz as a means to convey her hate of Olga for her relationship with Sartre.
-*[[Michel Foucault]] frequently told his students to go out and take risks on a limb, with neither questions nor answers. In addition, he frequently did [[LSD]], [[drugs]], various forms of sadomasochism, and [[homosexuality]], the latter of which landed him with [[AIDS]], and his infecting countless others during the final years of his life.
-==Intolerance==
-Intolerance is a common trait among the almost exclusively [[liberal]] professors in modern American colleges, who cannot seem to accept that alternative viewpoints to their own even exist, let alone are held by their more intelligent students. Examples include:
-*Censorship of any mention of creation science in any biology class
-*A recent professor quit his role as adviser to a conservative group at Texas A&M, opposing their justified opposition to the tactics of terrorist [[William Ayers]]<ref>[http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/politics/6128862.html]</ref>
-*Refusing to acknowledge that gun control always increases crime
-*Intolerance of any questioning of their beliefs, even (especially) while forcing them upon their students
-*Intolerance of academic accountability, believing that being granted tenure ensures they can do whatever they want for the rest of their careers, and that they have a right to keep their jobs no matter what.
-*Opposition to drug testing, even though parents have a right to know if their children are being taught by criminals and addicts.
-==Are Professor Values a Crime Against Humanity?==
-*[[Time magazine]]'s Atomic deacon [[William G. Pollard]] has pointed out how professors victimize students, robbing them from experiencing the supernatural and transcendent world (i.e., [[God]]):
-<blockquote>
-"Throughout the whole wide range and diversity of human experience, with the sole exception of the West in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the world of nature has been alive with, and immersed within, a supernatural world which everywhere made contact with it, although was transcendent to it. It is this whole dimension of reality which the scientific age has lost the capacity to experience or know. An age such as ours which has lost a genuine capacity for knowing and responding to some great segment of reality is actually, without knowing it, in a dark age.... We really have lost a genuine capacity which the rest of mankind has possessed and actively exercised, and we have become a people trapped and in bondage within the prison of space, time, and matter....'''It is primarily the business of the university...to maintain the imprisonment of our time. It saddens me to see a new generation being <u>victimized</u> by this all pervasive spirit of the epoch."<ref> [http://books.google.com/books?id=VpafCAIMCowC ''Faith and Knowledge''], Douglas Sloan, [[Westminster John Knox Press]], 1994, ISBN 0664228666, ISBN 9780664228668, 272 pages, page 194 </ref>
