In response to Nick Ennis' letter, "Professors should leave bias at classroom door," Jan. 20, don't you realize you've managed to undermine your own argument by using just one example of a professor's behavior to admonish all professors? You even said yourself that, "most of the professors I have had here have been able to put their views aside when teaching." Great, so then the majority of your professors are actually teaching the way you want them to.

I would hope you seized the opportunity to engage your professor in a debate over the opinions you disagreed on, because for you to neglect such a chance is a shame when you obviously feel strongly about the issue. Instead you've chosen an arguably less effective forum to send that specific professor a message. It's very possible that he or she has not read about your impassioned views and will continue teaching the way you find so detestable.
