On campuses across America, the Thought Police have a new tool: Bias Response Teams, administrators who crack down on classroom insensitivity.

More than 100 US colleges have set up BRTs. The newshounds at Heat Street last week dug up a taste of how it works.

A professor at the University of Northern Colorado got visited by the school’s Bias Response Team — for imploring his students to think about opposing viewpoints.

Heat Street’s Freedom of Information Act request revealed that the professor 1) had students read an Atlantic article about rising sensitivity of college students, and 2) asked them to consider un-PC views on topics like global warming and transgender issues.

A trans student finked to the BRT that the professor mentioned the idea that “transgender is not a real thing, and no one can truly feel like they are born in the wrong body.” She wrote she “was very offended and hurt by this.”

The BRT told the professor to never talk about transgender issues again, or even mention un-PC opinions on the topic, whether his or someone else’s.

If professors can’t ask students to engage in critical thinking, we might as well close down the universities now.
