While I do agree with you that college students today are more sensitive to issues of race and gender politics, it's simply because that's our job as learners. As college students who are engaged in a myriad of social, economic, and political issues, it's our duty to be actively engaged and educated about issues of sexism, racism and prejudice.

Gee, back in my days in college (late '70s) most people were focused on studying to pass their classes, so as to earn a degree. You know, stuff like organic chemistry, physics, structural engineering, mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, etc. We really didn't have time nor interest in issues of "race and gender politics [...] sexism, racism, prejudice." College was a way to get ahead and start a career, not an expensive extension of high school and an ill-guided social experiment.
