[QUOTE="DannyAlberta, post: 880995, member: 7924"] [b]RE: Infantilized Yale students meltdown over professor’s thoughts on costumes[/b] I, like all of you, am disgusted by this. There should be consequences for these students for acting like entitled brats to whom the rules simply do not apply (because they had their feelingzzzz hurt by someone's WORDS). Anyone here in RVF a Yaley and not afraid of the mob? There's a Black Knighting opportunity here. Yale has Undergraduate Regulations in force that all students must adhere to. [URL]http://yalecollege.yale.edu/sites/default/files/files/URs%202015-2016%281%29.pdf[/URL] Here are the three "core" values: The Regulations create an Executive to investigate academic and non-academic offences and in some cases discipline the offending students. Here are some of the "offences" set out in the Regulations: Here is an excerpt from the Free Expression, Peaceful Dissent and Demonstrations section of the Regulations: A faculty member could, and likely [u]should[/u], complain to the Executive about a breach of the Regulations by most or all of these students, which would start the investigative and disciplinary processes. Unfortunately, I have little faith that any faculty member will, given the snivelling apology referenced above. That said, these students engaged in conduct that at least ought to be investigated by the Executive, and perhaps in some cases the disciplinary process should be started. There is a mechanism for another student to complain, although I see a potential for interference from the faculty who may want to sweep this all under the rug arising from the requirement that any student complaints must receive a kind of "parental supervision": Thus it would take a student with some gumption, some tenancity and little fear, because I suspect the faculty may attempt to talk any student complaining about these entitled brats out of it. There is a more particularized process (with more natural justice safeguards) for "any case involving a charge of acts of violence or physical force, harassment, intimidation, or coercion", but this specialized process appears to apply only when the complainant him or herself is the victim of the physical force, harassment, intimidation or coercion and it would appear that in the wake of the apology, that is not going to happen. It's a long shot, but I have to believe someone in the faculty at Yale is very unimpressed with the tactics used by these students to mob another faculty member for merely speaking his mind and trying to stick up for his own wife.
