Isn't that like warning mathematics students they might see numbers?

One might hope that a serious, hands-on, facts based subject like Archeology would attract the kind of people who were above that kind of nonsense tbh. |

Tbh trigger warnings are nonsense.
If someone lacks common sense to know what could entail an Archaeology lesson then that's on them. I don't normally like to be too mean about a topic, but things like trigger warnings and safe spaces doesn't teach these people how to handle the negatives of life.

But as you say, warning Archaeology students they might see something creepy is a bit daft. Last edited by Oliver_W; 09-06-2022 at 02:26 PM. |

But I'm definitely with you that the Archaeology one is the worst.
