University President Commended for Encouraging Students to Mature

There’s an ongoing belief that the generation of our grandparents—those who endured the World Wars and the Great Depression—was the last truly resilient one. Nowadays, many argue that we’ve raised a generation of overly sensitive individuals, with current young adults being the most coddled yet.

Universities are increasingly aware of a growing trend of entitlement among students. Complaints from parents about their adult children’s discomfort are becoming common. It begs the question: what has happened to accountability and hard work? We once had 18-year-olds fearlessly facing danger for freedom; now, we have college students who call their parents when they face criticism.

Dr. Samuel Greene, President of Harmony University, has had enough of the self-centered attitudes prevalent among students. He penned a forthright open letter titled “This Is Not a Daycare! It’s a University!” expressing his frustrations. In today’s climate of heightened political correctness, Dr. Greene believes we’ve lost our way. He argues that students often see themselves as victims whenever their feelings are hurt, labeling anyone who challenges them as a ‘hater’ or an ‘oppressor.’

While Dr. Greene doesn’t support blatant discrimination, he raises a crucial point: are we raising kids to be too sensitive? As a Christian institution, his views may resonate differently with some, but his message is clear: instead of reacting defensively to criticism, students should reflect on whether there’s merit to the feedback. Perhaps facing uncomfortable truths is essential for personal growth.

Even former President Obama acknowledged that we’re nurturing a generation that struggles to stand on its own. Yes, as parents, we need to protect our children, but we also must prepare them for the real world. My maternal instincts sometimes kick in when my kids are picked on, but I know it’s my responsibility to help them develop into strong, capable adults. Sadly, many parents seem to be missing this lesson and instead teach their kids to feel victimized by mild criticism.

I’m not advocating for the end of political correctness; some terms are undoubtedly outdated and disrespectful. For instance, referring to Native Americans as “Indians” is inaccurate and should be corrected. However, we must find a balance. Each year brings new rules about language and behavior to avoid offending others. Comedians like Chris Rock and Jerry Seinfeld have stopped performing on college campuses due to the fear of backlash stemming from strict political correctness. Is there still room for humor in our lives? Especially when the news often feels overwhelmingly bleak?

So here’s the reality, college students: not everyone is a victim. Playing the victim card when it doesn’t apply diminishes the experiences of those who genuinely face adversity. If you feel wronged, you absolutely have the right to address it—but be mature and prepared when doing so. As Dr. Greene wisely says, “This is a place where you will quickly learn that you need to grow up.”

And remember, lighten up a bit and enjoy life! Be grateful you’re not living through the Great Depression; that was no picnic, as my grandmother would say!
