I prefer Professor Ermey’s endearments of “jackwagon” and “maggot”.

Eventually, the only acceptable address for another person will be “Citizen” or “Comrade”.

In turn students should not be required anyone on staff a CUNY Professor because... that would just be a lie.

I suspect the NR has missed the most problematic conflict—those students who don’t identify as a Mr., Ms., Mrs. or Miss.
There’s a reason sites like Facebook offer something like a gazillion ‘gender’ options.

As a gesture of respect for their academic preparedness, I hereby suggest addressing them as “Dumbo”.

It is insanity, but don’t dismiss it. This is their vision for the entire world, not just the college.

My first college year I had a business class with a professor who always called each student “mister” or “miss.” I found it very respectful and admired him greatly. Hard to believe he would now probably charged with a hate crime and thrown in jail.

Just as a mind experiment.... If Mr. Miss or Mrs. are disrespectful, what term should be used to refer to someone that won’t offend?

Yeah, it’s funny how a prof would say this,
because most of them require being addressed as
“professor” or “doctor”...

My first college year I had a business class with a professor who always called each student mister or miss. I found it very respectful and admired him greatly. Hard to believe he would now probably charged with a hate crime and thrown in jail.My first accounting professor, a former Drill Instructor, always accented the second syllable of 'mister' with a lightly breathed 'd' at the end so that you knew you were a 'turd'. You did you best to avoid his ire.
