There’s been a great deal of debate about free speech on college campuses sending triggered students to safe spaces and “empathy tents,” but Harvard Law Prof. Alan Dershowitz has shared this harsh reminder for the easily offended:
There are no safe spaces for ideas. When you come to university you sign a waiver –your ideas will not be exempt from challenge.

To the safe space!
This should be stamped on the acceptance letters and posted at every doorway. https://t.co/sZKCxenrP9
