2020 College Free Speech Rankings Reveal Crisis on Campus | RealClearEducation

Jonathan Haidt, a professor at New York University, frames the problem this way: At my university we have a bias response line. Students are encouraged to anonymously report anyone who says anything that offends them. So, as a professor, I no longer take risks; I must teach to the most easily offended student in the class. I therefore avoid saying or doing anything provocative. My classes are less fun and engaging.

Sounds about right. But on the upside, I’m less offensive.
