I think the opening paragraphs highlight what is wrong with the hysteria over DEI. A professor (someone we would expect to be a leader, trying to teach young people) receives an email from a student. We don't get to see the email, just the professor's rather snarky response. Whether you agree with the points the professor makes, you should be disappointed in the insensitivity he shows. He could have made all the same points while at the same time acknowledging that those deaths may have felt traumatic to some of his students, that their emotions were a legitimate concern of his as their teacher. My guess is that the student's original email was a lot more mature than his professor's response.
