'Liberal bias' targeted by college group

http://www.indystar.com/articles/4/203781-8754-102.html

Conservatives want to enlist legislators in their battle against what they say is liberal bias at state universities.

The group plans to push its "academic bill of rights" in about 20 states in the coming year, Horowitz told The Herald Times for a story today.
