While it might be the student's honest opinion based on some experience, it can also have a negative demotivational effect on other students. I never had a professor be MIA during a TESU class, nor would I ever expect that to happen.The art of debating has completely disappeared and colleges today do not teach that art either.
While it seems easy to flag all posts we do not like, our society teaches everybody to be offended rather than offer a valid opposite argument.
Society today also teaches people to silence opinions we disagree with rather than teaching how to disclaim the validity of a claim by using intelligent dialogue.
Those discussions should teach students the art of debate, instead students use it as a comment section of youtube, while those with opposed views want to silence freedom of speech.
And the course instructors should point out when students are off topic. They are too lenient especially on those who barely participate in them.
