The point she lists here is so fundamentally similar to the first that it's inclusion is either disingenuous or ignorant (both of which reflect poorly on someone teaching it).

Alternative position:

She is admitting a fetishization of white males. They "appeal" to her hopes and dreams, however, she fears her desire for them (for whatever reason). She projects this forbidden lust onto the plural "people" in order to distance herself subconsciously from these thoughts that disturb her.

Wrong. It's cheaper to go to Harvard than most schools.

Approximately $19,500 per year
The average student at Harvard pays approximately $19,500 per year after all financial aid is factored in, according to recent data. However, the total cost of attendance, including tuition and fees, is around $82,866. Additionally, the average net price for students receiving need-based aid is about $15,126.

$200,000 or less annually
Harvard University has made its education free for families earning $200,000 or less annually, with the expansion of financial aid beginning in the 2025-26 academic year. This means that students from families with incomes below this threshold will not have to pay tuition fees.

Undergraduate students can take up to 11 courses out of 32 on a PA/FL basis, though traditionally, there has not been a strong culture of using the system widely, as some majors or general education requirements historically required letter grades .

The PA/FL grading option is especially used in independent study courses, while other introductory courses have gradually incorporated related Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (SAT/UNS) policies. For instance, in 2010, there was a proposal to eliminate letter grades in the CS50 course in favor of SAT/UNS, allowing students to receive SAT in place of A through C- and UNS instead of D+ through E.
This initiative led to the successful introduction of SAT/UNS in CS50 in 2013, with the option later becoming the default in 2017.

The PA/FL system provides students flexibility to explore courses outside their primary areas of study without the stress associated with conventional letter grading. It is designed to encourage intellectual exploration, though students’ choice of major or concentration may still limit how many courses they take Pass/Fail .
The system has historically existed alongside standard letter grades, giving students the option to preserve their GPA or approach challenging subjects at lower risk.
.
In summary, Harvard’s pass/fail grading system has been a long-standing feature of undergraduate education, allowing students to take multiple courses PA/FL for both curricular flexibility and academic experimentation, with formal historical evidence of its use going back several decades and specific program implementations, such as in CS50, becoming prominent since 2010

I think this is a good place to start. For a conversation this important, that also has a lot potential to get derailed, it is important to establish some baselines. I hope it is clear, I am not trying to just troll here. You asked the initial question and asked for thoughts on your position, so I am happy to engage.

Questions 1-4 above are simple Yes/No questions that we can easily support or disprove. For question 5, I was admittedly not aware of this, but definitely want to know which DEM congresspeople directly called for REPs to be killed. That in no way is ok.

The question was how would YOU compare and contrast, not "thoughts on [OP's] position". This "I'm just trying to get a better understanding" ploy that you're implementing is insulting to the OP. He's not a child to be led to a conclusion. Make your pitch about your position.

Additionally, who is "we"?
