If a professor at a state-sponsored school cannot respect divergent opinions, they should not take public money.

A professor is not the same as a high school teacher... In fact, many are not even teachers, per se.
Professors are hired to do research and publish... teaching is just one of their duties.
The real job of learing in higher education, falls to the student. The prof is really only there to facilitate this process. You may not agree with them... more power to you. You have just learned another lesson about the real world.
