Damned skippy. When I was in college (both times, actually) it was understood that the success of one's academic career was predicated on psyops; of parroting everything a professor said regardless of one's disparate viewpoints.
Things may be different in Europe but, here, College isn't an open crucible of debate where one can be at loggerheads with his/her mentors as a matter of routine. It's an indoctrination center where the objective is to get a piece of paper which demonstrates that an aspirant can work and play well with the status quo.
