UNC has removed “guidelines” for avoiding micro-aggression incidents on campus that included both of those behaviors. According to a statement released in the wake of concern over its free speech policies, UNC says the information, which was posted by a school employee in a forum intended for faculty and staff to share information and discuss potential policy changes, does not reflect the school’s official policy on handling questions of campus speech.

Typical academic snowflake administrators.
“Typical academic snowflake administrators.”

And they’re not the least bit embarrassed either.
Welcome to the dreary world of totalitarian Political Correctness. You can say absolutely nothing that is fun, frivolous or complimentary based on appearance. Everything must be a politically-correct intellectual discussion in PC Newspeak.
“Even a simple compliment like “I love your shoes,” at least when addressed to a woman in leadership during a Q&A after a speech, really means “I notice how you look and dress more than I value your intellectual contributions. How you look is really important.””
So would the correct way to say it be, “I liked your speech, how about we go and get a drink together”?
What a bunch of jack@sses.
The correct response to “I love your shoes” is: “Thank you. Now get me a sandwich”.
Leftists would back down more often if they were challenged more often.
Liberals can never take anything at face value. EVERYTHING must be analyzed to death through the lens of political correctness. And they are ALWAYS looking for a way to be offended.
They have so many filters running to scan for anything they can conceitedly get furiously offended at.
I think she needs to lay off the sandwiches a bit.
Remind them that you resent their attempts to assert colonialist hegemony over your self-actualization, that the soft bigotry of their close-mindedness and failure to keep an open mind for divergent viewpoints reveals their classically crypto-fascist, proto-modern mindset regarding the malleability not just of words, but also of ideas and concepts. Then tell them that it is a micro aggression if they fail to attempt to communicate with you through the post-modern language generator available on the internet.
“One knuckle sandwich comin’ up!”
“Even a simple compliment like “I love your shoes...”
C.D. Bales: [to two drunks that have just made fun of his nose] I really admire your shoes.
Drunk #1: What?
C.D. Bales: I love your shoes.
Drunk #2: What do ya mean?
C.D. Bales: And I was just thinking: as much as I really admire your shoes, and as much as I’d love to have a pair just like them, I really wouldn’t want to be IN your shoes at this particular time and place
And they’re not the least bit embarrassed either.

I’ve been around real jack asses, the animal kind. There’s no way you can embarrass one of them. Cuss one out real good and see if it gives a sh**.
That sign appears to have been pretty persuasive.
Looks like someone got their trial balloon popped.....
Leftist are in charge and all powerful on campus. Most comport themselves discretely, even though they support the narrative.
Thank God for engineering and physical sciences professors! They are not political.
I cannot afford all the loves of bread and tons of baloney to satisfy THAT request!
