I am glad you posted that information about your personal experience with people checking you out in the classroom. It makes it easier to understand where you are coming from. I'm not certain that tells you much about me. But I thought a while before I posted that story. But if you want to know where I'm coming from, it's the quote from, I think, John Stuart Mills, that the best way to deal with offensive speech is more speech, not limiting speech. I think the Campus Watch stuff is an attempt to limit speech. And a dangerous one. Personally, for the faculty members involved; and educationally for the institutions involved.
