Rutgers University students expressed hurt feelings and fear in the wake of a controversial lecture last week by conservative writer Milo Yiannopoulos, saying the outspoken commentator's takedowns of liberal views were an assault on their sensibilities.

"I felt my identity was getting shot at by what he was saying and by what other people were saying," sophomore Jasmine Dennis noted during Monday's forum, according to the Daily Targum, the New Jersey school's newspaper.

As part of his "The Most Dangerous Faggot Tour," Yiannopoulos - who indeed is gay - lambasted many schools' attempts to shield students from ideas that might offend them during his Feb. 9 speech, calling out their "culture of safe spaces and trigger warnings."

"Of course, they're not really traumatized or upset - they're just upset that someone disagrees with them," he offered. "In my view, anybody who asks for a trigger warning or a safe space should be immediately expelled."

During the lecture many students held loud protests in which they shook their fists and smeared fake blood on their faces -

“They need to start college with a hard boiled DI telling them “You are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth.....””

One thing that is happening in college these days, the pendulum is swinging back. Colleges are getting much tougher since about last summer. Everyone is done with the clapping for credits routine. College admissions are down and the value of the college degree is down. Defaults on loans are staggering. College has become a joke.

To counter that, colleges are going old-school. No more Masters teaching Bachelors. Doctorate is required. No more “professor” title for anyone not a PhD, having published at least twice per year, and a full time professor. “Instructor” is the title otherwise used.

Some colleges are going back to attendance required.

I could go on, but the pressure on colleges is working.

Maybe an obligatory two years of military service prior to college would toughen them up.

Our military these days is as emasculated and PC as any college campus.
