During this class, the professor interrupted our scheduled lesson to ask for our opinions on an unrelated political question regarding the Israel-Hamas war. When people tentatively shared their perspectives, the professor responded tensely with dissenting views. As the course progressed, it became apparent that the group of students who did not agree with the professor’s own opinions were received less favorably in class discussions.
