Not All Professors Do

As a professor myself, I have to say that Dr. Pipes is correct in pointing out the disturbing negativity of some academics regarding current events. One commentator on this article advised readers to disregard Pipes' views on "America's finest minds."

Ha-ha. Those few who draw attention to themselves via one form of extremism or another are those who have the weakest minds among us. Most academics are sensible people.
