This article feels all over the map to me, is it about the educational system there / getting kids to go to class? Or is it about getting them to talk to each other?
All of these seem 100% within the professor's ability to enforce....
Or is it about talking about ideology?
>That means many students graduate without having benefited from talking very much with their teachers and peers, and they stay stuck in ideological bubbles, unwilling or unable to engage with challenging ideas.
As far as that goes I'd argue that's the same thing everywhere ... who WANTS to talk about anything like that?
On social media we live in a time of "I don't think this housing policy is effective." results in accusations of racism and assumptions that nobody can be talked down from ... so yeah who wants to do that?
Even decades ago I didn't want to talk about such things in college without really knowing who I was talking about ... that's not strange.
