I am with Miles Kimball that our university has done a good job of taking the high road on this, after some faltering around the showing of American Sniper.
The point of university is not to provide a greenhouse for delicate intellectual orchids. It is instead to prepare students to participate effectively in the life of the mind in both their personal and professional lives. Such participation implies the ability to effectively confront, engage with, and learn from ideas that differ from one's own.
Who was my favorite student this term?
