"Nazi" Smears & Campus Hypocrisy expose Higher Ed's Toxic Double Standard as universities preach civility while excusing ideological attacks. Universities love to talk about inclusion, safety, and respect, but what happens when a conservative professor is smeared in front of students and the university shrugs?


In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nicholas Giordano speaks with professor, author, and Campus Reform Higher Ed Fellow Adam Ellwanger about his latest Campus Reform piece detailing how a colleague allegedly called him a "Nazi white supremacist" in front of an entire classroom. Ellwanger explains what happened, how the university responded, and why the incident reveals a much larger crisis inside American higher education. 


The conversation goes beyond one campus smear to examine academic freedom, DEI loopholes, faculty ideological capture, declining college standards, weak writing skills, AI plagiarism, and the death of the college credential. Giordano and Ellwanger expose how higher education's toxic double standard protects leftist privilege while students, parents, taxpayers, and employers pay the price.

  • How "Nazi" smears and ideological labels are used to intimidate conservative professors and silence dissent.
