The backlash against liberalism on college campuses

538’s Galen Druke and professors Matt Grossman and David Hopkins talk about why some liberal academic ideas have been rejected by those with college degrees.

For decades, Republicans were thought of as the country club set, while Democrats were the party of the working class. But increasingly, education has become a larger dividing line in American politics than economic status. This trend has seen college-educated voters move toward the Democratic Party and non-college-educated voters shift toward Republicans.

In this installment of the 538 Politics podcast, Galen speaks with Matt Grossmann and David Hopkins, authors of “Polarized by Degrees: How the Diploma Divide and the Culture War Transformed American Politics.” They explore how this educational divide is reshaping not just electoral outcomes, but the way each party approaches governance and policy.
