Harvard student speaks out against campus coddling

It seems all we hear from Ivy League institutions these days is the whining and complaining of the privileged. Whether it’s wanting more black professors or changing the name of a building, special snowflakes on college campuses keep finding ways to avoid work and others’ free speech and remain coddled.

Enter Rachel Huebner, a staff writer for Harvard’s student newspaper. In an article critical of campus “sensitivity,” Huebner explains that movements purporting to protect students have gone too far.
