Except we know this is not true, because plenty of other countries don't expect universities to micromanage their students' personal lives.
Your comment is a great example of, "well this is how it currently works in America, therefore it must be this way universally for all time." Please try to account for other countries existing before issuing sweeping generalizations about human nature. There's more to the world than just the US.
- giardini 4y agoDo not put words in my mouth. TulliusCicero says >"Your comment is a great example of, 'well this is how it currently works in America..."<" Yes, this is part of what I was saying. Another part (also implied) is "that is how it was when I went to college (in USA)...". There are many underlying unspoken implications in speech, I haven't the time to tell you all of them for this particular sentence nor do I think that you would be interested. >"...therefore it must be this way universally for all time.'"*< No, this is NOT what I was saying. YOU implied this and YOU said this. You are more eloquent and communication speeds up when you speak for yourself. Do not speak for me.
