Bridging Emotion and Intellect: Classroom Diversity in Progress.
Fried, Jane
College Teaching, v41 n4 p123-28 Fall 1993
College faculty are not trained for intensely emotional discussion of non-Eurocentric topics that may arise in a diversified curriculum. They must learn to teach students to separate facts from cultural assumptions; shift perspective and acknowledge the validity of other viewpoints; and differentiate between personal discomfort and intellectual disagreement.
