Yes, there absolutely is value in being exposed to other viewpoints, both in and out of the classroom. You guys always whine about universities being liberal hive minds, after all.
I'm not arguing against that, I'm saying that it isn't the purpose of education to expose people to other viewpoints, it is the purpose of education to teach the facts. If people want to be exposed to other viewpoints, and I think that's a very good thing, they can do it off school grounds.
