statement as a question or appending such phrases as "I guess" or
"Don't you think" or "I may be wrong‖

male students.

―The topics that we‘re covering in this class are often difficult, not
just intellectually but emotionally. While I expect there to be
rigorous discussion and even disagreement in the course of our
class discussions, I ask that you engage in discussion with care and
empathy for the other members in the classroom. Aim to disagree
without becoming disagreeable. In this class we will not shy away
from the uncomfortable. Critically examining and assessing our
most basic assumptions and values is not just one of the tasks of
philosophy but is an activity vital to living an authentic life. I urge
you to have the courage to the uncomfortable in this class. In
exchange for your courage, I will work to ensure a classroom
environment that supports your taking these intellectual and
emotional risks.‖
