Questions Nobody Is Asking

But if you were wondering who the silliest special snowflake at Harvard is, consult the New York Times.

Best paragraph:

College students are volatile, and if our “safe spaces” seem more for hiding from ideas than for shelter from oppression, it is because we occasionally confound structural injustice (which hurts, badly) with being-in-the-world (also hurts). We are obliged as social individuals to fight the first and weather the second, and also to help others do the same.

The Ivy League is overpriced. 

Also, if you are wondering what “structural injustice” means in this context, I’m pretty sure it is: “I WANTED A PONY!”
