A recent survey by the Harvard Crimson found that conservatives make up just over 1% of the school's faculty.

Harvard University's student newspaper published the survey results on Tuesday of nearly 500 members of the faculty. Of those who responded, 38% identified as "very liberal" while 41% identified as "liberal." Another 19% said they were "moderate," and only 1.5% of the respondents said they were "conservative" or "very conservative."

The poll showed that 44% supported Sen. Elizabeth Warren for president. Only three people said they would vote for President Trump in his reelection bid.

Faculty members submitted their answers to the questions of the survey anonymously.

Conservatives have long criticized Harvard for its leftward lean. In 2018, the Harvard Crimson editorial board called for the university to hire more conservative professors.

"Startlingly, just around 1.5 percent of respondents to The Crimson news staff’s survey of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences identify as conservative or very conservative, compared to 83.2 percent who identify as liberal or very liberal," the board said in the piece. "This stark divide has harmful effects on the University’s ability to train our nation’s leaders, and it risks alienating current and potential conservative students."
