I take isue with the concept of college/university being a 'safe space'. Yes, when I was young, University was the place where LGBQT youngsters were able to 'come out' with less fear, where white kids first met and made friends with kids form other ethnicities free from parental disapproval, and where you went to lose your virginity. But they were also places of challenge, political and social debate and where uncomfortable truths were taught and faced. That at least is vital if the next generation of leaders are going to be people of worth.
