[QUOTE="essentialsaltes, post: 77645841, member: 294566"] Facts like these? [HEADING=2][URL='https://hechingerreport.org/calculating-faculty-bias-against-conservative-students/']Calculating faculty bias against conservative students[/URL][/HEADING] Ideology has only a tiny relationship to college grades, researchers say But is there any actual evidence that conservative students are penalized by liberal faculty in their classes? One team of researchers studied more than 7,000 students around the nation who started college in 2009 and found the answer: not so much. They calculated that the most conservative students earned grades that were less than a tenth of a grade point [0.04 if I'm reading the table correctly] lower than those of the most liberal students on a conventional four-point scale. [The paper also discusses other possible causes for this small difference than conscious bias on the part of professors, which seems unlikely in most cases. For instance, there is also a difference in SAT scores, with conservatives doing better in math, and liberals doing better in english and writing, which may have an effect, particularly in non-STEM classes/majors.] [/QUOTE]
