Matthew -- I think the whole ideology issue is in the eye of the
beholder because I personally would say that those professors of
yours are the ideological ones and are trying to force their opinions
down their students throats.
I have been criticized before for wanting to integrate several
theoretical perspectives into my work on the grounds that I am just
not willing to take a stand.  I am more than willing to take a stand--
it is just that no one theory can explain everything and taking
pieces from all of them helps me (thus my knowledge of postmodern
writing -- a major taboo in my department).

Good luck with it
