Shhhh, you'll be called a racist.

Student demonstrators alleged that there is a “toxic” racial climate in the graduate school, including in Rust’s classroom... In a letter sent to colleagues in the department after the sit-in, Rust said students in the demonstration described grammar and spelling corrections he made on their dissertation proposals as a form of "micro-aggression." ~UCLA Daily Bruin
