People complaining to the authorities about professors who wear Palestinian scarves seem to be completely oblivious to the fact that tomorrow every Muslim student will claim that female professors who aren’t wearing burqas are insulting them, and then what are they going to do?
Students either should or shouldn’t be able to control the teachers’ clothing. If we start going down the road where such control on the grounds of “discomfort” is fine, we’ll all end up in a very unpleasant place.
Snowflakery of the highest caliber is what this is. Policing people’s text messages, writing complaints to college administrators over professor’s sartorial choices – what a disgrace.
