Ep. 93 'Coddling' one year later

One year ago this week, "The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas Are Setting Up a Generation for Failure" was published. On today's episode of So to Speak: The Free Speech Podcast, we sit down with FIRE President & CEO Greg Lukianoff, who co-authored the book with Jonathan Haidt, to reflect on what's changed — or hasn't changed — in the intervening year. Show notes: TheCoddling.com "College suggests students respond to 'offensive' language with 'ouch!'"
