Joel J. Kupperman | Autonomy and the Very Limited Role of Advocacy in the Classroom
Kupperman observes that students tend to go through stages when they are introduced to controversial topics in college, from frustration through relativism to, ideally, a personal point of view balanced with appreciation for differing opinions. He stresses the importance of a student's autonomy in building a personal opinion, which should never be unduly influenced by the professor, and promotes the development of more formal and informal codes of ethics in education to mirror those in the legal and medical professions.
