Cornell Law Professor: Prevalence of ‘Lived Experience’ in College Campuses Is Destroying Education

EXCERPT:

JACOBSON: "Yeah, well, 'lived experience' is the wording used when somebody can’t prove something, when they don’t have a real argument. It’s like, 'Well, I have experienced...,' 'In my experience...'"

INGRAHAM: "'My truth.'"

JACOBSON: "'My truth.' There is no objective reality. That’s the whole critical theory destruction of the academy of education. There is no real truth. It’s just how I experience things and how I feel about things. And that’s the prevalent ideology on campuses just about everywhere, but certainly at Penn, at Cornell, at Yale, at the, you know, so-called elite institutions, that how you feel is most important, not what the truth is. And when you hear truth you don’t like, you get angry."
