Now that oppression is rampant on our nation’s campuses, many colleges and universities have established “bias teams” and “diversity officers” whose job it is to root out and eliminate any whiff of patriarchy or disenfranchisement before social justice warriors melt down, safe spaces are invaded and entire campus communities collapse under the weight of their own manufactured outrage.
More: Fat Activist Says ‘Lose Hate, Not Weight’
The University of Minnesota, for example, which just hosted a “fat activist” to help its School of Public Health students learn why diets and exercise are the tools of “thin privilege,” has a VP of diversity who holds “office hours” on three random dates, for two hours at a time.
You have to make your appointments in advance, you forfeit your appointment if you’re five minutes late, and sign up begins 30 minutes in advance of office-hour shifts. So students should prepare for safe space violations as they vie, elbow to elbow, with other social justice warriors for some precious gripe time.
The University of Oregon has a different approach. Its “Bias Response Team,” which sounds rather ominous (nifty logo, though), is composed of seven administrators, including an LGBT director, a “multicultural inclusion specialist,” a “director of global citizenship,” and a “Native American retention specialist” to “gather information about bias incidents,” to provide a safe space for victims of bias to heal, and to educate the Oregon community on triggering micro-aggressions.

Thank you based anon. I'm going to blame countless microaggresions on Jeremy and outright hate speech on Damien.
"There was a social gathering in the dorms and I overheard Jeremy mention that when he was over in India, it was difficult to find a public restroom. Damien said he had the same problem when he was an exchange student in China.
So what? Are they suggesting that people who defecate in private are somehow better than everyone else? This is Western privilege at its worst."
Oh look more /pol/ bait. That's so rare on /news/.

This is actually happening. Not only are people like that out there, your college loans and tuition fees have to be higher to pay for all this and accomodate their paranoia.

The bias team sounds extremely biased

Tell me more about how it outrages you.

This is good /news/. I was worried that I'd be dead before I'd get to see official outlets for reporting my neighbors' wrongthink.

Poor little child. You aren't smart enough to comprehend tge fact that you have misspelled your entire sentence. If anyone us worse or lower than humans that would be you and your failed attempt at Grammar and sarcasm. Yiu insolent fool. What kind of being are you to even be making yourself look" cool" when in reality you are scared and are quivering because you aren't able to even shut anyone up. The most possible logic i have is this. You never put others down which made you a pathetic low scum, when you're a pathetic scum you have no friends or girlfriend and when that happens you resort to last thing you call "hope" it really is humorous.

nice pasta
The obvious response would be for a few crafty shitlords to cook up some scripted complaints and do whatever they can to waste the time of all these phony bureaucrats.

Can't someone just “identify” as something not represented by a member of the bias strike team and get up in arms about that?
What, you don't have any Asians on your staff?
Sorry, I don't think you can understand my circumstances unless you're also a trans-lesbian Muslim.
How dare you trivialize my culture by equating all native tribes! You give an official position to a descendant of those who slaughtered my ancestors, then suggest that I should be thankful?
If you haven't been sexually micro-assaulted at least seventy times, you're not qualified to counsel me.

The fascist left is creating a society worse than anything Orwell feared.
May they all burn in hell.

From an article which was linked by OP's original article:
Snow Penis Reported as Bias-Incident
The University of Michigan continued to struggle with its official position on sexuality, snow and freedom of expression when a Hall Director reported a giant snow penis as a bias-incident.
One member of Residential Staff, who wished to remain anonymous, told the Michigan Review, “I find it more than a little ridiculous that Housing officials are required to waste their time reporting trivial occurrences such as this phallic snow object.”
“after a bias incident occurs, staff focus on rebuilding trust in the community, restoring relationships, repairing harm, and fostering healthy communication.” Undoubtedly the Bursley community has been harmed by the snow penis and will be relying on staff support to rebuild relationships and trust long after the snow melts.
The Residential Staff member who spoke with the Michigan Review explained his concerns with housing policy that led to a pile of snow being reported: “In the real world, no one cares about stuff like this. It is the height of privilege and entitlement to be obsessively concerned with utterly inconsequential events such as this.”
Yet the “real world” will soon be in the hands of today’s college students. This potential future might jeopardize even the classic snowman in favor of a gender, sex and color neutral version.
