I've worked as a instructor at a university for about 15 years. Most of my students are significantly more conservative than me, but they seem to find my point of view interesting and exciting. I approach instruction with a joy in learning, knowledge, and ideas. My students perspectives are deeply interesting to me. Any opinion in class can be challenged, including my own. Ideological instructors don't teach students to think or develop as individuals and have no place at a university. Ideological environments present challenges to professors many of whom hold views that are different from far left orthodoxies.
