So, Donald Trump won the presidential election, and colleges and universities around the country are predictably canceling classes and exams because students are predictably too devastated to be able to do their schoolwork.
Its everywhere. A professor at University of Michigan postponed an exam after too many students complained about their very serious stress. Columbia University postponed midterms, a Yale University professor made an exam optional, a University of Iowa professor canceled classes and a University of Connecticut professor excused class absences all because their students just absolutely could not function knowing that theyd have to live in a country where their president would not be the president that they wanted. And its not even just the students a University of Rochester professor canceled all of his meetings with students the day after the election because he decided he just could not bear to talk about it with them.
Reading all of these stories, I really have to wonder: Do any of these people realize that this kind of behavior is exactly why Donald Trump won? The initial appeal of Donald Trump was that he served as a long-awaited contrast to the infantilization and absurd demands for political correctness and safe spaces sweeping our society, and the way these people are responding is only reminding Trump voters why they did what they did.

Isn’t it sad that after all these years that graphic is still accurate and appropriate?
