I got nearly perfect scores in several first year university classes, without studying. Because not only were they going over easy material, it was material I learned years prior. Basic algebra, rudimentary trig, reading lists that included childrens' books.
You can only teach at or below your own level of competence. Universities are not aiming to hire the smartest or most competent people, they have quotas to fill.
Yeah I don't mind ratings at all, and I think I've actually had to argue that here before. Trigger warning comes off to me more of a "danger, you might have a nervous breakdown if you watch this" for the mentally incompetent.
I'm in agreement with you. There should be no trigger warning for adults. If the mere entertaining of ideas has the potential to cripple you mentally and send you into a spiral of despair for which you're bound to need counseling, you can't rightly be called a mentally fit adult.
Well, some of those warnings have gone off the wall.
For cripe's sake, I've seen the Contains Violence warning before showings of the Super Dave Osborne Show. Yeah, Super Dave, the World's Greatest Stuntman. The last great variety show, which always ended in a "stunt". It was like watching a live action Wile E. Coyote cartoon. Of course there's fucking "violence"! DUH!
Honestly at this point I really only consider the term "trigger warning" a trigger warning. If they co-opt some more phrases then I may change my opinion.
Good. I want the progressives fat, stupid, weak, and in a mind fog of their own making. When the culling starts they won't prolong it by putting up any kind of real fight. I'll be waaaaaaaaay over here though, watching them eat each other.
I'm so glad I never went to University...I don't think I would have been able to handle it. Isn't that the point of University? To expand your horizons? To learn? To embrace viewpoints? Oh noes! The TWEEN book offends me because its author doesn't agree 100% with me...das homophobic! Quick, shut it down!
At this point, I think I got more real world experience working blue collar jobs than I ever would from University. Don't ever put these kids into a blue collar job, they wouldn't last two fucking minutes with the shit you'll hear from real people.
"Difficult conversations" at a FUCKING UNIVERSITY. What in the actual fuck?
You didn’t think kids went to Universities to THINK did you?
Lol - I’m old enough to remember when leftists mocked churches who said the same thing about the SAME book!
but ...but they add another ring to the equation! is ...is not the same thing!
Here’s a book about a tranny who likes to fantasize about fucking kids in the butt. Just fantasies though. Just fantasies.

What university is admitting students at an elementary school reading level?
All of them, and the amount of retards admitted is strongly correlated with prestige such that Harvard is particularly egregious.
It's often worse than that.

If it's a Children's Literature class, then it gets a pass.
Affirmative action combined with no child left behind.
Yes. All you fucking progressives would have died at Ron's wand for chasing them into that bathroom.
The entire concept of a "trigger warning" shouldn't exist.
Certainly not for adults. We have ratings on movies for reason: to signal to parents what may or may not be appropriate for their children.

Would you consider the statement "Viewer Discretion is Advised" a trigger warning?
I have heard and seen it stated before television shows with violent or mature themes.

I don't watch TV anymore so I don't know what is out there now.

JK Rowling didn't write the book, so why would it contain her views?
A feminist is not capable of writing male characters without them being caricaturistically evil.
You really are retarded.
Read another book.
