So to Speak podcast: Trigger warnings and DEI statements

On this episode, we are joined by Carleton College professors Amna Khalid and Jeffrey Snyder to explore the latest research about trigger warnings.

On today’s episode of So to Speak: The Free Speech Podcast, we are joined by Carleton College associate professors Amna Khalid and Jeffrey Snyder to explore what the latest research says about the efficacy of trigger warnings. We also discuss one of the more contentious debates surrounding academic freedom: the rising prevalence of so-called diversity, equity, and inclusion statements for college faculty job applications and evaluations.
