Like, lol, nice work with the intellectual rigor there!!!!!

-
I will note, there's a problem when college students feel they can dictate pedagogical methods because they are customers
-
But that's not the fault of the students, or of the teachers.
-
The fight over trigger warnings isn't what's breaking down the student-prof relationship, it's just a symptom of the problem
-
It's the








, stupid -
Anyways, there's plenty of professors who understand that content notes/trigger warnings make their teaching better not more restricted
-
At the same time I've never heard a professor say they like it when student councils try to mandate trigger warnings across the campus
-
This debate would not nearly be so toxic if it weren't happening against the higher education $$$$$ problem. It's a sideshow.
-
Now you can cast debt burdened 18 year olds as a bunch of spoiled tyrants when in fact their future is being stolen from them
-
And professors are recast as brave pillars of free speech making a stand when their agency is constantly robbed under the present system
-
Meanwhile, the administration gets to vanish from the picture entirely
-
Anyways, keep practicing that intellectual rigor, UChicago, lol

@sarahjeong It says "we do not support" trigger warnings. I don't read that as a ban -- just as "don't expect them." But could be clearer. -
my issue is that there are plenty of professors who want to use content notes/ trigger warnings in their own syllabi
-
and this is as a pedagogical tool. What does the admin have to say about that? That they don't condone what their profs are doing?

Don't have it handy- did it say they were banned or not to expect them?
-
"do not condone" in a list that also says "we do not" cancel speakers, make safe spaces, etc
-
"do not support." But again, could be clearer. Agree that it would be ridiculous and censorious to ban them.
