our worries on one of the few trends that is
pushing back against isolation isn’t helpful.

96. Tell that to Chris Avenir
Ryerson University sites 3 reasons for
the case against him.
1.Learning should be hard.
2.There is no structure of regulation
for online behavior and that makes it
incompatible with academic work.
3.It is our job to protect academic
