Too many conservatives actually love ideologically-driven hiring & research.

What would they teach? How to successfully steal & election? How to create more effective propaganda? Because that is what the "conservative" movement is all about now.

How to be racist, forced birth, misogynistic, kidnapping, pro-corporate/1%, anti-union, anti-education, climate denying, voter suppressing, lying, budget exploding, constitution ignoring, agency eviscerating authoritarians?

I thought the curriculum would focus on how to be a bigger piece of 💩 given that's how the majority of them act.

The problem is in market place of ideas, they have no buyers, so they need state intervention to prop them up.

“The Roger Taney School of Conservative Ideology”. Because conservatism is large a fact-free belief system. Exhibit 1: Reaganomics.

-Harvard University needs to fight fire with fire. Suggest the university sue the Trump administration for being too conservative, with members like Stephen Miller and JD Vance, and not enough liberal cabinet members or advisors. .,.

What exactly is ‘conservative scholarship’? Research that starts from a conservative stance and pursues avenues congruent with that? Research that is not open to consideration of all data is not worthy to be called research.

How about they interview lots of "conservative" applicants every year but ultimately repeatedly decide to conserve the money that would go to scholarships for "conservatives" until they find anyone worthwhile, actually intelligent, & sufficiently free of narcissistic toxicity?

& if conservatives complain about such magnificent & justifiable conservation, maybe it is time for us all to admit that the Republican party is not conservative at all anymore.

There is no such thing as conservative scholarship. There is only scholarship. Starting from an explicit position of political bias engages in only ideology, not inquiry. This is like “alternative facts.”
