Incoming freshmen get training on ‘microaggressions’

Published



The only thing I remember from my college orientation was being taught to juggle. For the record, I don’t know how to juggle, but for some reason I remember someone attempting to teach me prior to starting college classes.

Nowadays, students are taught that just about everything they say could be considered a “microaggression” if anyone overhearing it gets offended. These colleges could be teaching incoming students not to be pansies, but no. They’re teaching them to constantly police what they say on the off chance someone in earshot gets hurt feelings.
