This isn’t surprising since we already know many famous comedians are now avoiding college campuses.

College humor publications stick to ‘politically correct’ jokes as a rule of thumb now

The humor publication at the University of California-Santa Cruz pioneered the next generation of college comedy back in 2010: The Fish Rap Live! voluntarily put its own staffers through “sensitivity training” and put out an “apology issue”

that contained four pages of individual letters of apologies from editors and a list of how they planned to change their content to reflect new values.

This is the new normal in 2016, according to a thoroughly depressing report from the Student Press Law Center that looks at the new values of the next generation of comedy writers:

In the past several years, college comedy outlets have tended to shy away from anything that could be marked sexist or racist, and when student writers do cover topics that could raise hairs, certain conversations about the direction of the comedy happen in the editorial room.

Editors want to know: are we “punching down,” or piling on the underdog? Are we critiquing and adding value to the conversation or perpetuating a stereotype?

Some of this is in response to disciplinary actions and yanked funding from student governments – The Koala at UC-San Diego and The Daily Bull at Michigan Tech were recent targets – but some of it comes from the social justice warriors who now run these publications:

The staffs that err on the side of less-inflammatory language said they work to find comedy and comment on topics that will be received well, instead of dismissed as insensitive or offensive.
