I'm pro-union because I think workers should organize to balance the power that business owners have in various negotiations. It's true that unions have been weakened, but it's not because of multiculturalism. I would argue, it's because people seek to exploit divisions for their material interests.

In many cases, it’s better to take the L and learn from it than to stress yourself and everyone else out trying to make a deadline. The quality of our work decreases when we’re all pumped full of adrenaline. Not to mention the health consequences.

Furthermore, be precise in language - most of what we label “urgent” is just time-sensitive. 3. Grapple with the fact that there are sometimes consequences to missing deadlines. But most of those consequences are not all that damning.

Absolutely. And did you catch where the professor mentioned having an observer the prior class period? It sounds like they and their dept head (and probably dean) knew this was coming and did everything they could to mitigate.
