It feels cowardly not to write about it.

College campuses have once again become hotbeds of dissent. When teens and early 20-somethings drive the narrative, it makes a lot of powerful old white dudes nervous. That’s just a fact, and as Casey Stengel once said, “you can look it up”. Historically, most college campus revolts have been demonized in real time. Only later are they seen as being on the right side of history.

That’s not to say the same thing will happen here. I merely point this out in case you’ve forgotten. And judging by what I’ve been reading out there on social media, a lot of you have.
