Random musings on criminalized writing
John Lovas brought this up on the blog SIG listserv and it made me think long and hard about how responsible we are when we students get busted for speaking their minds. Anyone who knows me, knows that there is no buffer between my brain and my mouth and I pretty much say what I feel. I usually encourage students to do the same thing.
While my professional and personal life is my own responsibility am I wrong to encourage students to do what they feel is right despite the consequences? Are we supposed to teach students to do what is "just right" rather than "just and right" for the sake of safety?
