I’ve had professors who educate, and ones who indoctrinate. Here’s what I learned from both types.
Earlier this month I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
As I look back on my time on campus, I can honestly say I am thankful for both the professors who challenged me intellectually and were open to my conservative views — as well as the professors who tried to indoctrinate me, belittled my principles, or allowed me to be verbally bullied by classmates.
That’s because both types of experiences taught me how to better defend my beliefs as I enter the next stage in my life: real life.
As I consider law school, I know that my potential future career as an attorney would be built upon defending my stances with wisdom and logic. With that, I appreciate the tutelage the intellectual sparring on campus gave me. It toughened me up, taught me how to argue the facts.
