[quote=Anonymous]When I started the article I thought I was going to be somebody pining for the “good old days” as code for all the terrible things people could get away with in the name of fun. But as many people above have mentioned it goes way beyond that and the result as described feels kind of dystopian. I do think that on any college campus you’re going to have lots of young people who find friends and community and also lots of people who feel lonely and don’t know how to connect. Especially when you have all the super smart kids typically found the school like Stanford. Still, my DD is at a peer institution that has worked on making some changes in the name of keeping people safer (although they still have a good long way to go) but has stayed pretty relaxed in letting students create their own experience and have fun and after reading this article she is glad for being someplace that has struck a different balance.[/quote]
