Charlotte Talks: Today's College Campuses: Political Correctness Gone Too Far?
Professor of English Ann Fox joins a panel, including constitutional lawyer and president and CEO of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) Greg Lukianoff and director of the UNC Charlotte Counseling Center Dave Spano, for a discussion of issues raised by "The Coddling of the American Mind." In the recent Atlantic article, coauthor Lukianoff claims that college students are demanding protection from words and ideas they don't like in the name of emotional well-being and that this sensitivity is disastrous for education, and mental health.
