I think the title was a little bit of a misnomer. I think what we're seeing is a belligerent student body, that has been coddled and pacify their entire lives.

I think the title was a little bit of a misnomer. I think what we're seeing is a belligerent student body, that has been coddled and pacify their entire lives. Universities are starting to wake up to this, and they're starting to fight back against a spoiled generation. Others may politicize this and say that the liberal policies of free expression of students is facing a turnaround towards a more conservative stance on student demands. Perhaps I am in the minority, but I believe university is where you go to have your thoughts and opinions challenged by those you disagree with.

I hope that university is a place where you go to examine your own thoughts and opinions after getting better about rigor and evidence. If that process involves constructive discussions, fine. There's no particular value just being inundated with hostile disagreement. For example, just to have someone repeat political slogans at you contradicting your opinion about abortion is not necessarily helping anything.
