U. Mississippi May Punish Students for Using Microaggressions

“to stop them from doing it again and again before it becomes pervasive”

The strategy here is simple. Adhere to the left’s agenda or face real punishment. It’s called conditioning.

Ole Miss Might Start Suspending Students Over Microaggressions

The University of Mississippi (UM) might punish students who make offensive remarks, but it hasn’t clarified whether it will actually double down on students who commit “microaggressions.”

The college’s outgoing general counsel Lee Tyner made comments suggesting the university would do so.

“Some people would say you can’t punish a one-off racial slur because it’s not pervasive,” Tyner told Inside Higher Ed. “Effectively my position is to stop them from doing it again and again before it becomes pervasive.”

“You’ve got to be able to cure the hostile environment before it’s created,” he added.

The school has not clarified, however, whether they would actually punish a student for making an offensive comment.

“The policy allows UM to take action when one person harasses another and to cure a hostile environment before the harassment causes significant harm,” school spokesperson Lisa G. Stone said in a statement, according to Campus Reform.

Comments

Seems so often it takes a micro-brain combined with a micro-thin-skin to recognize all of the micro-aggressions that are roaming about.

Not unlike the “racist dog whistles” that only liberal Democrats, and hardly anyone else, seem to hear everywhere.

Given the oft-demonstrated micro-mental capacities and micro-backbones demonstrated by the majority of higher education leaders, it’s not surprising that we have this micro-pimple-on-the-backside issue float to the top of the commode.

Ole Miss ought to ask Mizzou how that snowflake stuff worked out for them. Maybe they need a wake-up call?

… before the harassment causes significant harm

I wonder how they plan to quantify this. What exactly is this “significant harm” they expect to see?

And I wonder what they’ll do when the race-baiters claim that the mere presence of those detestable white people is itself a constant microaggression.

In a strategic move, CA may allow the creation of Jefferson, because that would weaken the efforts of the New California movement, having taken much of the wind out of its sails.
