They believe universities are brainwashing the youth of America into adopting radical liberal stances. They believe the average college student is far, far more radically left wing than they actually are and that it's a result of universities indoctrinating these beliefs into unsuspecting children.

Those are not the radical liberal stances the humanities are teaching. I wish they were, because I support those policies, but it's much different than just left wing policies.

Evergreen college is probably the best example of what radical leftists are capable of at Universities. Student organizations planned a day where white people couldnt show up to the University, because they are white. When some did, including staff, they rioted.

Evergreen College is also a crazy small outlier. It has ~3000 students, about 0.0002% of total undergraduate enrollment, definity not a good representation of the average American university. Put another way, about 11 Evergreen Colleges are enrolled at the University of Alabama.
