War and Dissent: The Political Values of the American Professoriate.

Shepherd, Gordon; Shepherd, Gary

Journal of Higher Education, v65 n5 p585-614 Sep-Oct 1994

A national survey of 657 college faculty investigated political attitudes at the beginning of the Persian Gulf War (1991). To test hypotheses about the effects of age and cohort variables on faculty political values, reactions to the Gulf War were correlated with indicators of opposition to or support for the Vietnam War.
