Accuracy in Academia (AIA) is an American organization that seeks to counter what it sees as liberal bias in education.
AIA describes itself as a nonprofit watchdog group[2] and think tank that "want[s] schools to return to their traditional mission-the quest for truth".
[3] The AIA claims to promote academic freedom and is particularly critical of what it describes as a left-wing bias in American academia.
[4] The AIA characterizes such bias as liberal or communist "indoctrination", and aims to stand up for the rights of politically conservative students and faculty.
The group was criticized by prominent conservative and first Secretary of Education, William Bennett, who described AIA as "a bad idea" at the time of its founding in 1986.
