Ideological nondiversity

Interesting link from JL at VC, regarding dominance by the left of universities.

I have no trouble believing that self-selection accounts for a huge part of the paucity of conservatives in the academy. That it does, is not really of defense of anything. Self-selection combined with even slight prejudice can be an extremely powerful force of social ordering.
