Pain that has gone untreated or undertreated can have significant impacts on the patient’s quality of life. At Middlebury College’s commencement last week, President Ronald D. Liebowitz delivered the 2007 Baccalaureate Address to the school’s graduating seniors, as is customary around this time of year in central Vermont. We evaluated the diagnostic value of fecal calprotectin in patients with abdominal discomfort.

I had my fair share of screaming at God… for the pain.. n wanting to trash it out.. with fists… Well is stupid to want to have a fist fight with God knowing that i cant win.. The evaluation of patients with abdominal discomfort is challenging and patient selection for endoscopy based on symptoms is not reliable. Middlebury’s President on the ‘Value of Discomfort’ by Will Creeley. Diversity sure can be messy.The controversy surrounding the acceptance by the College of an endowed professorship in American history and culture in honor of William Rehnquist is one more example of the complexities that come with an increasingly diverse community.Because the former chief justice was conservative, and was on the side of several court decisions that ran counter to the positions held by several underrepresented groups on campus, there was a genuine feeling on the part of some that honoring Mr. Rehnquist was a repudiation of their presence on campus and a sign that the College did not value diversity.

Few 18 to 22 year olds are skilled in inviting or tolerating perspectives that are vastly different from than their own. June 5, 2007.

Rather, liberal education must be first and foremost about ensuring a broad range of views and opinions in the classroom and across campus so that our students can question routinely both their preconceived and newly developed positions on important matters. We also witnessed how easy it can be for some members of an aggrieved group to fall into the same kind of stereotyping from which they themselves have suffered.

At Middlebury College’s commencement last week, President Ronald D. Liebowitz delivered.Specifically, in observing that “[d]iversity sure can be messy,” Liebowitz argues that “well-educated individuals like yourselves, who have been made to feel uncomfortable and understand difference, are more likely than others to figure out how to discern right from wrong, acceptable from unacceptable behavior, and know the difference between ethical and unethical conduct.” FIRE has made this precise point for years, and it’s refreshing to see a college president understand the value inherent in having students engage ideas they may find difficult, disagreeable, offensive, or unwanted.

Frankly, the same goes for 30-, 40-, and 50-something-year-old academics.

Fox News, Bernie Sanders and the value of discomfort The April 15 town hall was a win-win for Sanders and for the cable news network — both from an intellectual and a strategic perspective. Though one can understand this perspective, especially given the history of underrepresented groups here and on other campuses, it is unfortunate that the Chief Justice’s accomplishments and reputation as a brilliant jurist by liberal and conservative constitutional scholars alike were lost in the opposition to his politics.Ironically, the stance taken by those who believed it was wrong to honor the Chief Justice because of his position on particular court cases undermines the very thing the protestors support most passionately—diversity. 2016 Aug 15;5(1):192. doi: 10.5195/cajgh.2016.192.

Such deliberation will serve as the best foundation for enabling our graduates to contribute to the betterment of society.In writing on the College’s alumni online listserv about the Rehnquist controversy and the reported opposition of some to President Clinton speaking at tomorrow’s Commencement ceremony, an alumnus from the Class of 2001 offered this perspective:“I always thought that the benefit of a place like Middlebury was that it opened your mind and helped you become more informed by allowing (or, forcing) you to interact with, listen to, and learn from people [with] different opinions — even if that meant welcoming those you disagree with onto your own turf.”.I hope those of you in the audience who are graduating tomorrow have given, and will continue to give, this topic some thought.
