In a striking reflection of the current state of higher education, Virginia Tech professors have opted to cancel classes in response to Donald Trump's decisive victory in the 2024 presidential election.
Rather than engaging with the democratic process, faculty members chose to prioritize their own emotional wellbeing, citing the need to mitigate post-election stress among students.
One professor, Jeff Mann, openly admitted to retreating into "recluse mode" after the election results left him feeling "thoroughly disgusted." This leads to the unsettling question of whether these educators are truly committed to preparing students for the realities of the world or instead indulging in a cycle of self-imposed victimhood.
Screenshots reveal an alarming trend where educators cancel classes to provide emotional respite, raising concerns about the use of taxpayer dollars and the encroachment of leftist ideology on campuses.
At the same time, the Virginia Tech chapter of the United Feminist Movement organized a “de-stress” night, complete with yoga and coloring activities, seemingly treating the political climate as a childhood playground rather than a serious arena for discussion and debate.
In a broader context, these actions reflect an academic environment increasingly disengaged from reality, preferring instead to wallow in discontent over Trump’s victory.
This behavior not only undermines the educational experience but also exemplifies a generation of professors more interested in promoting a liberal narrative than fostering an environment of critical thinking and resilience.
As the nation moves forward with a Trump presidency, one must question if our universities will rise to the occasion or continue to cultivate an insular culture that shields students from opposing viewpoints and real-world challenges.
Ultimately, the reactions of Virginia Tech professors expose a profound disconnect between academia and the electorate, emphasizing the urgent need for a reevaluation of educational priorities in an ever-evolving political landscape.
