<p>I'm actually pretty glad he said it, because most of the class time is devoted to discussion about various current events and it's good to know where he stands.</p>
<p>My sociology teacher implies that he's unbiased, but he definitely has a liberal slant. It's annoying as hell.</p>
<p>Some of my teachers try to proselytize a lot, but nothing interferes with grading (maybe subconscious bias, well, that can involve a host of other factors).</p>
<p>My AP Government teacher is very, very liberal. But she never actually says it. It's a joke amongst AP students at my school. It affects her grading- she's been known to give zeros to Republicans. It's fine for me because I'm liberal, but I feel bad for my conservative friends. One of my other teachers hates her because of this and talks trash about her. It's kind of entertaining.</p>
<p>HOLY <strong><em>ING *</em></strong>, my apush teacher was a turbo liberal. We would often talk about politics in his class, and he always was super liberal. The problem though was that it effected his grading. I took his class one year ago, and we were learning about the civil war just before the primary season started winding up. Our civil war test was a take home test, 80 multiple choice questions and an essay. Our essay prompt: "how does * Barack Obama** remind you of ** Abraham lincoln**". WTH.</p>
<p>^^haha, that essay topic is so weird and kind of unfair...</p>
<p>our ap econ teacher is supposedly really conservative. oh yeah, and he hates freshman & loves seniors, or something, haha...</p>
<p>our ap ush 1 & 2 teachers [they're husband & wife and everyone loves them : )] are pretty liberal and spend a lot of time making jokes, esp. this year [2] there was a LOT of anti-palin spews (& some anti-bush/mccain, of course), which is perfectly fine by me ;) haha, this happened with my ap bio teacher too. all awesome teachers tho, and it would never affect grading, i don't think...</p>
