Faculty responses in the 2016-17 HERI report were, like I said, totally voluntary. A threshold of faculty responses from each uni was needed to count, which favors certain institutions over others. So, issues of motivated reasoning right away. 20k is also a tiny sample of overall faculty. 2/3

But the larger point stands: asking whether faculty hold private liberal or conservative views tells us nothing about what they actually teach and research. An imbalance one way or the other doesn't prima facie mean anything about the quality of a university climate. 2/3
