As a student I had no problem professing my pro-death penalty and anti- school busing and anti-ERA opinions and took a lot of heat from my fellow students though, given my background as a college football player and tai-kwon do practitioner no one crossed the line (then again most liberals are basically pussies). I will say that had exams not been graded anonymously I would have kept silent out of fear of retribution. I only recall one conservative professor during my law school days and during my career, which includes 6 years as an appellate court judge, I have met none since. I honestly believe that the elite law schools purposely screen out conservative candidates for teaching spots and as we all know conservative legal scholars are rarely invited as speakers. The McCarthyites of the left rule our law schools so no wonder law students never are exposed to the other side.
