As a person who has done a little grading myself, I never gave a rat's ass what religion a student professed, whether the student agreed with anything/everything in the syllabus, or whether they even liked the class. All I cared about what was how well they learned the material.
If all this law does is codify my attitude, I'm good with it.
So you say you don't have a bias against conservative or religious students. That's good. But many leftist teachers do have biases and grade students up or down based on them.

I know plenty of people say that. I've never known a teacher who acted like that though. Granted, that's a very small sample.

I worked as a teaching assistant while in college. I couldn't even match a name to a face much less an ideology. I saw answers and an answer key. That's all.
It's hard to believe that we once put a man on the moon and today we have become such an anti-science culture. If we're going to insist as a society that the Bible is a science textbook, that the earth is 6000 years old, that Noah's Ark really happened, and that the Book of Revelation is the explanation for climate change, then I believe this country's best days really are behind it.
Well I sure seen it, not sure about a religious bias but a left leaning bias and an anti-male bias particularly if white.
Any proof of such?
In cases where world views could come into play, like an Ethics course. The professor was clear to say exams would be based on what was covered in class, not opinion.

I don't care if you believe it or not. A lot of teachers mark down male students particularly white and just have a palpable bias. Receiving an "A" vs a "C" I learned depended solely on the identity of the teacher.
This professor wanted students to argue that to save the planet all whites had to be sent into space to rid the planet of whiteness. Oh, and space doesn't exist because white people made it up.

I'm white, male and never received a C in anything.
