What do you believe in?

It appears that higher education has a powerful positive effect on paranormal beliefs (pseudoscience, cults, and superstition). Two years ago two professors published a study in the magazine Skeptical Inquirer showing that,while less than one quarter of college freshmen surveyed expressed a general belief in such superstitions as ghosts, psychic healing, haunted houses, demonic possession, clairvoyance and witches, the figure jumped to 31% of college seniors and 34% of graduate students. I know that colleges and universities are hotbeds of liberal thought but what else are they teaching?
