The conservative watchdog Campus Reform said a course on the history of police taught at Stanford University was the "most biased" course in the country this year.
The course called "History of the Police in the United States: Slave Patrols to Ferguson" examines “the historical relationship between race and the administration of policing."
Campus Reform made the decision after taking submissions from college students across the country for its new annual "Biased Course Contest."
It said the classes "present a skewed perspective on major political issues."
Runner-up was a course called "Taking Marx Seriously,” taught at Amherst College, which asks whether the economic theories of Karl Marx deserve “another chance.”

BBJ, I believe you will find that all of these leftist-type courses are taught by angry, bitter liberals like the one in the movie, God's Not Dead (see below). The trouble with these courses is they only present one side. That is why they are considered the most biased. Liberal bias in academia has shown itself in many other ways including tougher grading for students who refuse to endorse liberal political beliefs or a refusal to write recommendations for those with different beliefs. As a conservative, I was always willing to take a lower grade than succumb to liberal thinking but I understand why other students may be less inclined to resist liberal bias since grades are still one of the most important factors for getting into graduate school.
God's Not Dead is a feature film about college student Josh Wheaton (Shane Harper) whose faith is challenged by his Philosophy Professor Mr. Radisson (Kevin Sorbo) who believes God does not exist. It revolves around the lives of several individuals who are also challenged by a world that believes God doesn't exist starring Kevin Sorbo, David A.R. White, Dean Cain, Shane Harper and the Newsboys.
