University of Chicago Professors Urge Students to 'Speak Up Loudly' for Trigger Warnings

More than 150 faculty members at the University of Chicago are pushing back on a controversial letter from the school's dean of students that told incoming freshmen not to expect trigger warnings or intellectual safe spaces on campus.

The letter, published Tuesday in the Chicago Maroon, does not explicitly endorse the use of trigger warnings, but it criticizes efforts to prohibit them.
