At OKWU, we teach you to be selfless rather than self-centered. We are more interested in you practicing personal forgiveness than political revenge. We want you to model interpersonal reconciliation rather than foment personal conflict. We believe the content of your character is more important than the color of your skin. We don’t believe that you have been victimized every time you feel guilty and we don’t issue “trigger warnings” before altar calls.

I wish more people would deal with the Social Justice Warriors and spoiled Special Snowflakes of the left the way Gordon Ramsay deals with bitch-customers.
Here’s a article that mentions students at Harvard Law that don’t want to be held accountable for material in a criminal law class that has to do with sexual assault statutes (among other “safe space” asininity).
The correct response would be for college administrations to tell these spoiled brats that if they can’t handle the material then GTFO.
Who would want an attorney that skipped classes that she (he?) found “triggering”. That would be one absolutely useless attorney. Will the bar exams be “corrected” to remove triggering questions?
Next up: medical students that want to skip various classes that might be triggering. I hope any woman injured by a rapist isn’t taken to some ER where all the docs run for the safe space (in pediatrics) in order to escape triggering.
Too bad that there aren’t any grown-ups at these schools to tell these “adults” to grow up.

This has been happening at Medical Schools for decades; students in the OB/GYN-track opting-out of certain women’s reproductive health classes for “personal reasons” yet being considered fully-trained and prepared for board certification and licensure.
Ted B.: Touche, I think.
(I assume your point was that it’s an utter travesty if a licensed OB/GYN has absolutely no training in how to perform an emergency non-elective abortion.)
