At Pennsylvania State University, no hurt feeling is too small, no slight too inconsequential, no unintentionally biased statement too unimportant. Administrators want to know it all. The public university is in the midst of a massive campaign that encourages students not only to watch what they say, lest they offend someone, but also to report any and all biased statements to campus officials. “There is no place for hate, overt or subtle, at Penn State – such actions do not represent our mutually held values,” Eric Barron, president of Penn State, stated in a recent message to the campus community.

As a part of the campaign, the university is using posters and magnets to emphasize its Report Bias system set up under the Office of the Vice Provost for Educational Equity. PennPosterMore than 1,000 images of a stop sign in the form of posters and magnets have been distributed at Penn State. They tell students to “be the difference” and “take a stand for a positive campus climate.” The posters classify a wide array of situations as a “bias incident” including cases of discrimination, bigotry, inequity, sexual assault, injustice, and much more...

Those who scream about "micro"aggressions are just self absorbed little snits.

They are indeed sir. Screw them. How is that for a little aggression?

Those claiming microaggressions should be directed into counseling for their mental disorders of paranoia, depression, etc.

Don’t forget the “microagression” of the Kingdom of Fenwick against the US which resulted in the US surrendering to Peter Sellers and a cast f 10.

Report “microagression” to “micropinheads”.

The Nitanny Lion is now a ball-less old wuss in a burqua.

Are their any major universities today who are not PCed up the Ying-Yang, asskissers to BLM, Commies, Islamic jihadists and protectors, alphabet soups of weirdo groups, and led by cowardly administrators and hate-America professors?

I hear “SILENCE”!!!!

Why don’t they just cover the entire campus with cameras and microphones to capture every student at all times which would eliminate the need for snitches?

Penn State is no longer the Campus it was. Spanier and his ilk destroyed that was once a decent place to go! I worked in the belly of the beast back in the late 80’s . Bouncer at the All American Rathskeller. It has even changed, now the whole place is nothing but a distant memory. All PCed up gender bent and no reality left.
