College Student Suspended For “Antagonizing” skeleton Microaggression Lecture
A second year medical student has been suspended from the University of Virginia after questioning his professors during a lecture on microaggressions.
Kieran Bhattacharya was suspended from the University of Virginia after the institution alleged Bhattacharya became “unnecessarily antagonistic and disrespectful” during a lecture Bhattacharya says was titled “Microaggressions: Why Are They So Sensitive.”
Bhattacharya published audio recordings, both of the classroom incident that led to his suspension, and of the following disciplinary hearing that led to his suspension.
In the classroom recording, as the lecture concluded and students are allowed to ask questions at approximately 28 minutes in, Bhattacharya took the opportunity to raise several concerns with the professor.

But what do you mean by that? Leftism is pretty much the only place I see it occurring in large numbers.
You only look for what you want to see.

The entire concept of "microaggressions" from beginning to end is wholly leftist-created tool of social control and domination.
Wow, you've really got it out for people. Care to prove that you're not just being paid to sit on here & try to convert us to the GOP?

Academia is not black & white, right or left, this or that and it's definitely not anyone's political whipping boy.
I think everyone in this dialog is taking advantage of the scholarly work of millions just to further the agendas of a tiny cabal of political elites. The fact they're taking different sides in public debate is a mere distraction being used to control us.
Academia is a well-known weapon in the fight against political totalitarianism. Right or left has nothing to do with civility at all.

True as that may be, it doesn't apply to every academic.
