According to college professor Lisa Hjjar, “Any kind of trigger policy is inimical to academic freedom” (Medina). An example of this would be if an English professor wants to read the book “The Adventures Huckleberry Finn”. This book has many trigger warning on it because of the numerous racial slurs. But, the book also has a moral teaching behind…

White professors, especially due to the position of power that faculty held, but he treated it as a learning experience. He felt that he was often on "opposing sides of the table": All of these interactions shaped a great understanding of how I engaged what I perceived to be power. It gives me a fuller understanding of how to assert my own power. Even if they were in negative situations, I gleaned some sort of lesson from the interactions because of them. But yeah, many of the professors who…

take a few minutes to explain this to you. First, I am your professor, not your teacher. There is a difference. Up to now, your instruction has been in the hands of teachers, and a teacher’s job is to make sure that you learn. Teachers are evaluated on the base of learning outcomes, generally as measured by standardized tests. If you do not learn, then your teacher is blamed. However, things are very different for a university professor. It is no part of my job to make you learn. At…
