It's almost Halloween, and for colleges and universities across the country, that means numerous opportunities for students to demonstrate how sensitive they are to things like diversity, cultural appropriation, racism, sexism, classism, and any other politically correct "ism" that reduces the poor little snowflakes to quaking, quivering, wobbly bowls of Jell-O.
How to combat the coming onslaught of emotionally painful violations of right thinking? One college is offering around-the-clock counseling for students who find some costumes too much to bear.
The University of Florida wants students to know that if they’re offended or scared by Halloween, there’s counselors on hand to walk them through the traumatic experience.
“October brings fall weather and Halloween,” the university wrote in a blog titled “ Halloween Costume Choices” posted to its website Monday.
“If you choose to participate in Halloween activities, we encourage you to think about your choices of costumes and themes. Some Halloween costumes reinforce stereotypes of particular races, genders, cultures, or religions,” it continues. “Regardless of intent, these costumes can perpetuate negative stereotypes, causing harm and offense to groups of people.”

Makes you want to get out the old Frankenstein costume and show up on campuses around the country, doesn’t it?
People who are troubled by Halloween customs do need counseling.
“snow flake” certainly is the appropriate term for this politically correct accommodation.
Follow the money... SJWs with their own severe mental problems, no doubt.
Are these “counselors” paid by tax payers?
How did any of us survive our childhood?
More pandering to muslim Democrat voters?
Hi.
I think there is another thread like this. No matter...
Wow, it’s snowing in FL!
5.56mm
First thing I thought also, that there is NO way that this story is on the square.
Donald Trump costumes, oh the reactions would be delicious.

No, I won’t post a link to muslim propaganda. It’s easily found.
The administrators of the college are soft-headed, pin-headed, missshapened-headed, degenerate fools. They are attempting to keep the students immature snowflakes so that those students will take more of their worthless curriculum taught by LIB asshats for the most part. How pathetic.

Or clown suit:-)
Sad part is, they are the future. That alone is scary.
I really do hate clowns though. Maybe I need help!!!!
Halloween today. Christmas tomorrow. Then it’ll be banning Valentine cards, four leaf clovers, pastel colored M&Ms...
Guaranteed they won’t pass up free Halloween candy.
If I were back in college I’d wear a costume featuring blackface, a sombrero, and a shirt showing an image of Mohammed with a bomb on his dome.
