Some Schools Now Giving Students Tools to Report Each Other for COVID Violations
“track and respond to behaviors and situations that work to support or detract from [its] goals of a safe and supportive environment”
If schools still taught accurate history, these students might know this sort of stuff has been tried before.

Surveillance on campus: Universities give students tools to report on each other’s COVID violations or ‘bias incidents’
Michigan State University provides students with reporting system to achieve what the school describes as a “safe and supportive environment” for its community members.
The school’s Culturally Inclusive College Sharing System (CIC) is an online submission form allows the university to “track and respond to behaviors and situations that work to support or detract from [its] goals of a safe and supportive environment.”
The form tells students that some protected speech can still warrant a report. Anything intended to “intimidate, demean, mock, degrade, marginalize, or threaten” their identities, real or perceived, is worth notifying the university about. Actions need not be intended to harm and can do as little as promote a “negative, hostile, or unwelcoming environment for the target.”
Students can specify whether they are requesting the college to take action or are simply supplying information to help “track trends and help determine patterns.” The second kind of report also allows students to share good deeds that support diversity and inclusion goals.
MSU’s CIC system is similar to the widespread COVID-reporting strategies that have been adopted by universities over the past year, which have encouraged students to report peers who do not comply with COVID-19 regulations.
University strategies for maximizing COVID-19 compliance range from online forms to enlisting students as health ambassadors and influencers, as well as paying those who encouraged mask wearing, distancing, and informing the college of peer vaccine attitudes.
The University of Miami hired 75 student ambassadors to influence peers to follow health guidelines on campus, the school announced in November 2020. The university website quotes one ambassador saying her cohort are so well-recognized by their shirts, that students “automatically” fix their masks when seeing them.

Just say “no”, and if one of these ambassadors so much as touches you, give them a fist to the solar plexus as hard as you can and as they double up, another to the chin. HARD.
Because a state where everyone spies on everyone makes everyone feel so safe.
“The school’s Culturally Inclusive College Sharing System”
I smoked too much culturally Inclusive Weed and now I’m feeling peckish. I’m going to visit the school’s Culturally Inclusive Sandwich Vending Machine,
“The university website quotes one ambassador saying her cohort are so well-recognized by their shirts, that students “automatically” fix their masks when seeing them.”
Like Rashida Tlaib does!
Say, the shirts wouldn’t happen to be brown?
I am guessing that 74, perhaps 75, of the ambassadors were bullied as kids.
“…or perceived…”
Use their rules against them even if it’s only a “perceived” offense.
