Not OK to support all points of view
I am sitting here in my office grading quizzes and listening to your presentation of the listener's comments that professors should nurture all viewpoints...so I guess that means that I must support a student who is a neo-Nazi, who denies the holocaust, who supports the battering women and children, endorses slavery, etc., etc., etc. I cannot accept the notion that all ideas are equal.
Good for you for even repeating the comments, but I suspect I'm not the only one whose blood pressure rose significantly as a result.
