Jacobson:
Because most campuses are dominated by liberal adminstrators, faculty, and student activists, conservative/libertarian students often feel isolated and alone, and up against seemingly insurmountable forces which wield power over their lives.I have some firsthand knowledge with that experience, though I would emphasize that my liberal instructors almost without exception showed respect for my conservative views--which were assuredly expressed, where appropriate, in class and in my assignments.
For many students, the risk/reward ratio says to shut up and just go along so as not to be singled out and targeted
I encourage conservative or libertarian students to make use of the support system Jacobson has established.
