Doesn't sound like a problem to me. Ground nerves and sapped respect are fairly common on college campuses accross the world. The political leanings of the professors often have very little to do with it.
I think that's a boogeyman argument. Do you have any non-anecdotal evidence that this is a problem on any kind of grand scale?

How does a "more balanced" set of leanings and biases result in more diversity of opinion? I don't know if you've been on a college campus lately art, but diversity, whether of opinion of otherwise, is one thing that isn't in short supply.
